Macarons ~ Finally..

Ju emailed me few days ago, mentioning about the hands on macarons making session at K.Yani of Kitchen Guardian's house. The kind hearted Ju, wanted me to tag along. For the past few weeks, aku ada this craving for macarons. The truth is, I've never tasted it before. Cuma suka tengok gambar je sambil baca on how to make macarons, watched youtube videos on the ways of making macarons, looking at other people's beautiful creation or failure etc etc. So, bila Ju ajak pegi rumah K.Yani, aku was  very excited campur takut.

Why takut? I dunno.. Bila baca how temperamental macarons can be, I decided then and there, it's definitely not for me. Tapikan, sebab Ju is so nice, dah ajak, tak sampai hati nak tolak. Bila sampai rumah K.Yani, memang tak menyesal la aku pegi walaupun Iffah was experiencing stomach flu and Iman was running a fever pagi tadi. Aku pegi rumah K.Yani before hubby bangun. He wanted to sleep in, so aku tak kejut dia before aku pegi. I prepared breakfast siap2, which was Pulut Cawang, as requested by him.

Bila tengok K.Yani buat, nampak simple giler. Tak sampai 20 minute, dah siap. Pastu bila nampak the little feet yg keluar dalam oven, rasa excited sangat2 walaupun bukan aku yg buat. Aku nak pegang the piping bag pun takut. Takpe, aku tengok je, jadi tukang sibuk. While waiting for the macarons utk masak dalam oven, tiba2 hubby called, suruh balik becoz he's hungry, takmau makan kalau I tak balik. Ishk! potong stim betul. Melampau pun ada jugak.. grrr...

Alhamdulillah, Ju yang baik hati tu, datang hantar macarons comel kat rumah. So today, for the 1st time ever, I tasted macarons. I took one bite, and I know it's definitely not for me yang not sweet tooth ni. But hubby and the girls love it! Hubby suruh aku buat. I was like... WHAT?? Ok la.. I'll try.. K.Yani dah pesan suruh buat balik rumah nanti, maka kena la buat kan. But I need a new oven 1st. My current oven cuma bakar api bawah je sebab tu la aku takleh buat kek lapis. Thank you Ju and K.Yani!! I met another two wonderful ladies through blogging. I'm blessed, alhamdulillah..

  6. Hi Uncle Lee,

    LOL, same here, until yesterday. I took one bite, I know that my love for macarons is only on the surface, ie the looks. I dont favour the taste. My SIL gave me, few bags of coffee uncang which she said is the best she has tasted so far. U want some? :D


    I do hope my hubby wont be looking at other women, risau betul when I read ur blog coz everything is so true. Thank you for sharing it with us, the women :D
