Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Sieve 200 g icing sugar and 100 g flour into a bowl and mix with a whisk.

Stage 2 - 3 min.

Add 200 g egg white and whisk in.

Stage 3 - 3 min.

Add 100 g pistachio powder or paste and mix again.

Stage 4 - 3 min.

Pour 200 g noisette butter into the mixture...

Stage 5 - 10 min.

...and mix thoroughly.

Stage 6 - 1 hour

Pour the mixture into madeleine moulds and leave to rest for 1 hour in the fridge.

Stage 7 - 15 min.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and bake the madeleines for 10 to 15 minutes.

Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Remarks

Use pistachio paste rather than powder, if possible, as the smooth texture helps it to mix easily into the madeleine batter.

These proportions are to make a set number of small madeleines. It will make half the quantity of large madeleines: 60 small madeleines = 30 large.

Keeping: A few days in an airtight tin.

How to prevent butter burning during cooking

Butter, which is excellent for fixing flavours in a recipe, burns if the temperature is too high. It darkens and produces unpleasant small black specks (by the way, note that the famous recipe "raie au beurre noir", ray in black butter, is a kind of sacrilege!).

I just made these - they were easy to make (I used the purchased pistachio paste from King Arthur Flour)...but the pistachio flavor was not as pronounced as I would like....next time I might add a couple of drops of either almond or pistachio extract.
