Nothing Leavened

Allowed on Passover-Pesach

So lets make Macaroons!!
It's almost Easter- Passover. OK, first we have to have Martin Luther King Day, Presidents Day and Valentine's Day- who is taking me to the Fete at the French Embassy?
When it is Passover, which signifies the passing over of the angel of death, food is eaten symbolizing the Israelis on the rush out of Egypt to Freedom. No time to wait for levening of bread-we gotta go.
So here is the recipe for Macaroons- first heat in a bowl over simmering saucepan eggwhites, sugar and salt, and after creamy add vanilla, flour and coconut and refrigerate for three hours.
Then take out line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, put spoonfuls onto it, bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes and remove cooling for 15 minutes (http://www.joyofbaking.com/)
TOTAL APPROX TIME: 4 hours. excluding harvesting the wheat flour, milking the cow, extracting sea salt (and the trip to the seaside), climbing the nearest coconut tree and shredding the coconut (preshredded packages) and growing your vanilla bean pods. (total estimated time: 2 years). I think the Egyptians might have caught up with them eating Macaroon bon bons but enjoy!
