Macaron:
- Place the macaronmix in a bowl with the flat whisk.
- Add the water and food colouring and mix on low speed for 1 minute and on medium speed for 8 minutes.
- Pipe circles of about 2.5 cm on baking sheets. Use a 16 mm Ø nozzle for this purpose.
- Tap a few times on a hard, flat surface to remove air bubbles.
- Let the macarons rest for at least 60 minutes.
- Bake at about 140°C for about 20 minutes. (Time and temperature may vary from oven to oven.)
Anise ganache:
- Bring the cream to a boil with the star anise and simmer for about 2 minutes.
- Cover the pan with foil and let it stand for at least an hour.
- Replenish the evaporated cream and add the confectioners glucose syrup.
- Bring to a boil.
- Pour the warm cream mixture through a sieve over the chocolate and mix until homogeneous.
- Cover with foil and chill.
Apricot cremeux:
- Soak the gelatin.
- Heat the apricot puree, egg yolk, whole egg and granulated sugar to 85°C.
- Mix in the soaked gelatin and let cool to 40°C.
- Add the softened butter and blend until smooth with the hand blender.
- Cover and chill.
Tartelette:
- Turn Damco croute powder and butter into crumbs and add the water.
- Once the dough has formed stop mixing and refrigerate the dough for 24 hours.
- Then knead the doug and roll out to 2 mm thickness.
- Using greased rings, cut out the bottom.
- For the sides, cut strips of 3 cm high and 22 cm long and line the rings with them.
- Pipe a line of Almond paste K+K on the bottom and bake for about 20 minutes at 180°C until the tartelettes are golden brown in colour.
- Let the tartelettes cool down.
Apricot bavarois:
- Stir together Damco mousse fond neutral and lukewarm water with a whisk.
- Mix this with the Frucaps apricot fruit filling.
- Then mix in half of the whipped cream with the whisk.
- Then spoon in the rest of the whipped cream.
Assembly:
- Turn the anise ganache loose and fluffy with the flat whisk.
- Fill the tartelettes with a line of the anise ganache, then top with a line of apricot bavarois.
- Pipe alternating caps of the apricot cremeux and apricot bavarois onto the tartelettes.
- Freeze and pass the caps through slightly heated Frucaps cold mirror glaze neutral.
- Fill the macaron shells with the anise ganache.
- Place 1 macaron per tartelette on top of the pastry and finish further as desired.
