Pistachio Macaron Sandwiches
As seen on TV
Which Show?
Who made this dish?
Part of Clara's dessert trolley, which she introduced as: "All aboard the Sugar Rush Express."
[Narration describes the macarons as filled with chocolate buttercream and hazelnut praline; Clara presents them as pistachio macaron sandwiches.]
Clara: "I love making macarons. I love eating them, but I like making them more. But I need to wait for them to dry."
Clara: "The macarons have dried out. They have the little shell."
Clara: "Was it dry enough? No. I'm overthinking. Everything is testing me."
Clara: "The hazelnut praline, it's a bit grainy. Why is it grainy?"
Clara: "...pistachio macaron sandwiches."
[Showstopper: a retro dessert trolley of at least three individually portioned desserts, eight of each, with at least one baked element. 4 hours 30 minutes.]
Nigella: "The pistachios are very sweet, and a meringue is always very sweet."
Paul: "Macaron, I would like to see more of a smarter macaron, more of a foot, which shows me you've dried it out before you put it in the oven. The praline comes through, but it's really grainy."
Nigella (trolley overall): "Everything comes across as overwhelmingly sweet. Just needs a bit more balance."
