Failed macarons usually trace to: under-aged egg whites (separate and refrigerate 24 hours), under-mixed batter (should ribbon and merge in 30 seconds), humid kitchen (above 60 percent humidity prevents skin formation), wrong oven temperature (test with thermometer, ideal 150C), and skipping the rest period before baking (skin must form). Master each variable separately. Macarons reward precision more than any other pastry.
