Nerds in the kitchen, making macarons

I'm not sure how I missed it last fall when it was originally published, but Not So Humble Pie's recipe and troubleshooting guide to French macaron-making is the perfect follow-up to her exhaustive Macarons 101 article. If you're in the mood for a cooking challenge this Easter, I must recommend reading them both. Hell, even if you have no intention of ever making macarons, these posts are a happy place of cooking experimentation and science geekery.
