How to Make Ruby Chocolate Ganache
Heat mixed berry puree and glucose syrup till just begins to simmer. Do not boil!
Pour the warm mixture over Ruby Chocolate and let it sit for a minute.
Mix mixture with the spatula.
Add lemon juice and emulsify with the hand blender.
Transfer into glass container and cover with plastic wrap “to contact”.
Let set in the refrigerator for at least 8- 10 hours (or overnight).
When you are ready to fill macarons, transfer into pipping bag with a round tip.
Pipe a generous amount of ganache onto bottom of half the cookies and top with other half (different color) to make sandwiches.
Let the macarons mature overnight in the airtight container before serving.
How to Make Macaron Shells
In the mixing bowl sift together almond flour and powdered sugar. Set aside.
In the mixing bowl of a stand mixer add room-temperature egg whites and start whisking on low speed. Start adding sugar one tablespoon at a time. Add food coloring.
Increase speed to medium-high and whip until glossy and medium peaks. This will take 10-15 minutes.
Add dry ingredients into the meringue and start folding the butter. The batter is ready when you can make a figure 8 with a spatula or it flows “like lava”.
Transfer macaronage into a pastry bag with a round tip.
Pipe macaron shells on the baking mat.
Top the baking sheet pan with pipped macaron shells a few times. Let shells rest on the countertop until no batter sticks to your finger when you touch it.
Bake macaron shells in the preheated oven to 275oF (134oC) -300oF (150oC) for 12-14 minutes. Oven temperature and baking time may vary, depending on your oven.
Remove baked macaron shells from the oven and let it cool on the baking mat with a baking sheet pan. When shells are cooled completely remove them from the baking mat and pair them with similar sizes.
Notes
Get all ingredients and tools ready before baking. Measure all ingredients using kitchen scale. Lemon juice is an important ingredient, do not skip it. Baking time and oven temperature may very, depending on your oven.
