Instructions
Step 1
Sift the flour and potato starch together. Mix the egg yolks, liquid sorbitol, and inverted sugar syrup.
Step 2
Whip the egg whites with the meringue powder, gradually adding the sugar, until stiff peaks form.
Step 3
Pour the yolk mixture into the egg whites and continue mixing for a few seconds, then stop the mixer.
Step 4
With the mixing bowl still turning, gently fold in the flour and potato starch using a spatula.
Step 5
Using a piping bag fitted with a #9 tip, pipe small rounds directly beside one another, each with a diameter slightly smaller than the dessert (about 2 mm).
Step 6
Dust with confectioners' sugar once and let the shells form for 15 minutes, then dust with confectioners' sugar once more.
Step 7
Bake in an oven at 230-240°C for 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and tip onto a cooling rack. Once cool, use an offset spatula to lift the macarons from the paper and freeze for storage.
