Sleepless nights in Paris
Step into this feast of flow
The holy land of confectioners, Le Cordon Bleu Academy, honey love macaron
The small macaron DIY, specially arranged at the world's first chef school, founded in 1895, is the French Le Cordon Bleu. Founded in 1578 by King Henry III of France, the Knights of the Holy Spirit, these royal knights appointed by the king himself wore a cross with a blue ribbon, and they prepared delicious dishes for court celebrations. The "Le Cordon Bleu" has thus become a symbol of culinary excellence.
The French pastry chef will follow the steps to demonstrate: from the temperature required for syrup preparation, the whipping of cream, the making of low-gluten flour, the baking of dough, the blending of the top and bottom of the cake, and finally the macaron production.
The fun is that the cream made by yourself can not be too thin, nor too hard, and the syrup must be precisely controlled by temperature, otherwise the sugar core made cannot be solidified and the glue is not strong enough.
The same teacher, the students who teach the students to make different macarons. It is also a pleasure for everyone to watch their own works come out, compare them with each other, compare them with the macarons made by the teacher, and finally pack their respective works and bring them back to give to their friends and family.
Paris Opera
Opened on 5 January 1875, the Paris Opera is the largest opera house in the world. On the night of May 20, 1896, a major event took place here, when a huge 8-ton chandelier fell from the height of the ceiling, and thanks to this interlude and the various features of the building, one of the most famous novels of all time, the Phantom of the Opera, was inspired. Set in 19th-century Paris, the story tells the story of a mysterious and poignant tragedy of love.
There is a reason why the Opera is now known as the most tacky dating place in Paris, when many rich children dated their beloved girls at the entrance of the naked goddess on the front of the opera. He then went to Place vendôme on Rue de la paix next to the opera house to buy a diamond ring, which later evolved into the custom of "giving a diamond ring for engagement".
