I didn't understand that we have to place it to the chicken while it is cooking until I saw it being used in a movie. I have a related thermometer that was my token for my first journey to the US.

Just by chance, I got to know you had mentioned me in this post!! Oh, I feel honoured !!! Thanks a lot !!!! The photos of all the process are lovely, and even if the first try is never perfection...practice, practice, practice..... Learning to control the piping bag is practice too, but I must be honest !!! when we have, next to us, somebody to correct us, to show us, it is much easier....! One thing a pastry chef taught me is "trust your eyes more than instruments" We see in the photo that the syrup was too hot...you are right, so remove the pan at 115°C....when I was working at the hotel Caesar Park, the chef did not let use the thermometer for syrups...he used to say:"look! the answer is in what you see! not in the thermometer....at 115°C the bubbles are big, very dense...they take longer to burst....did you see that at the beginning they are small and burst instantly? passing the 110°C, they become dense, and big, throghout the pan,not only in the rim....they take time to burst...check that! so one day, you won't even need your thermometer... I don't know you, but you must be such a lovely person! Hello Kitchen Butterfly !!! Just by chance, I got to know you had mentioned me in this post!! Oh, I feel honoured !!! Thanks a lot !!!!

One of these days, I will chase my husband from the apartment as I do not want him around when I'm doing this - and I will bake macarons! I discovered them in Paris and have eaten many ever since but have always been too intimidated to try, but you convinced me. I'm not sure if I should thank you now =) Wow, ok, I am inspired.

Now I know what Matcha is, I now realise I have some in the cupboard from when my husband went to Japan. I've drunk enough of it but never thought of using it cooking - especially sweet stuff. As for the Macarons, my confusion in this is that I always think of macaroons as made of almonds. Thanks for the info.
