How long do you usually rest your batter? I see a wide variation between recipes so it gets confusing but I stick to the “touch the matte top and make sure it doesn’t transfer to your finger” method.

Macaron dandruff.

45 min works for me. If it’s more humid outside, then it could be up to an hour

The wide variety is because of several factors (humidity being a major one) at play. I’ve baked macarons in several different environments and go by the sheen and touch of them—they should be matte (not reflecting any light) and nothing should come off on your finger when you touch them.

Until they’re dry to touch – I always found any toppings like that made them dry much faster than without.

16min rest usually. I use an Italian method in a very dry environment.
