Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 160 °C (325 °F). Line a baking sheet with parchment.

  2. 2

    Whip the whites with the salt until they stand in stiff peaks, 3-4 min with a mixer.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, stir the coconut, condensed milk and vanilla extract until evenly sticky.

  4. 4

    Fold the whites into the coconut mixture in two additions, using a spatula, until no streaks remain. Keep it as airy as you can.

  5. 5

    With damp hands or a 2 tbsp scoop, shape 16 mounds and set them 3 cm (1 in) apart on the sheet.

  6. 6

    Bake for 15-20 min, until the tips and bottoms are golden brown.

  7. 7

    Cool on the sheet for 10 min, then slide the parchment onto a rack. The macaroons firm up as they cool. Store airtight for up to 4 days.
