stream between the side of the bowl and the beater while the mixer is running.

The batter is ready when it becomes shiny and it is not too thick nor too runny. You can check if the batter is ready by passing the spatula vertically in it: if the batter return to its initial position in about 5 seconds, it's ready.                                    <\/div> \n                                <\/div>                         <!--<\/td>\n                    <\/tr>-->\n                                           <!--<tr>\n                        <td>-->\n                                                              <!--<td>-->\n\n                                <div id=\"gmc-step-list-title-wide\" class=\"stepBlock\">\t\n                                    <div class=\"stepImage\">\n                                        <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10-1024x683.jpg\" rel=\"gmc-recipe-6621\">\n                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10-300x200.jpg\" class=\"gmc-step-photo wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.roadtopastry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Recipe-Mogador-macarons-Chocolate-passion-fruit10-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>                                        <\/a>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"stepNumber\">\n                                        13                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"gmc-step-desc\" itemprop=\"recipeInstructions\">Hold vertically a pastry bag fitted with a medium plain tip and pipe the batter into small rounds (about 3-4cm each) on paper-lined sheet pans.
