My favorite Ladurée French macarons served at the award winning Anthenaeum in London
Now that January has come and gone, many sights are set on Valentine’s Day, just over a week away. Have you ever thought of sharing an Afternoon Tea with your loved one? It easier to pull together than a lavish dinner and can be more relaxed. If you are single you can always hold one with your friends…or for yourself. In any event each Tuesday I dish on Downton Abbey and other topical issues one might discuss at tea, served up with a recipe with an interesting history.
You may find my Online Guide to Afternoon Tea helpful in understanding traditions and recipes to help you host your own tea party with family and friends. Today’s treat are traditional British Macaroons, the type that the British traditionally had with their tea. The bonus is that these are heart healthy treats.
