Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to about 160°C and line two trays with parchment. Separate the eggs.

  2. Step 2

    Beat yolks with 113 g sugar until thick and pale, about five minutes. Beat whites to stiff peaks in a clean bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Gently fold flour into yolks, then fold in whites without deflating. Transfer batter to a piping bag with a plain tip.

  4. Step 4

    Pipe twenty strips about 7.5 cm long and 1.25 cm wide, leaving space. Dust lightly with the reserved sugar three times at one-minute intervals.

  5. Step 5

    Bake about 18–22 minutes until light golden and dry to the touch. Cool fully before lifting from parchment.
