Parisian Passover Coconut Macaroons

The secret to these macaroons' texture is the Italian meringue, composed of egg whites and a boiling sugar syrup. When baking these for Passover, dust the sheets with matzo cake meal; you can use flour at other times.

Cooks' note:

·Macaroons keep in an airtight container 1 week.
