Mushroom and Sauvignon Blanc

Mushroom and White Wine Macaron

Easy French Macaron Recipe

This is possibly the easiest French meringue method. Perfect for home baking.

Calling all mushroom lovers!! If you like mushroom, you would like this sweeter rendition of the scrumptious mushroom and Sauvignon Blanc macaron. I used baby portobello mushroom in this recipe, but you can use pretty much any type of mushrooms you like. I love Shiitake mushroom. I have made this macaron with Shiitake before and loved it. Be creative and have fun!
