Cutting marshmallows is easy with a pizza cutter.

I used Alton Brown’s recipe. My husband said they were incredible and we tried them toasted - they didn’t flame up and char like Jet Puff. It was awesome.

I've only ever tried making Root Beer marshmallows. I didn't powder them enough after and they all stuck together.

I love making thoses, especially with pureed bananas or berries. Then i chocolate dip. Now i'm salivating.

Basically Ive figured out if you do the math, there's nothing stopping you from swapping like half the sugar to maple syrup. Just saying.

Almost had me fooled with calling them marshmallows! Now I know what to to tell the authorities when packing my stuff up!

Did this too, lots of fun! Mixing the hot stuff was a bit tricky but also satisfying!

They won't char till they dry out more. Use a dehydrator and they will still be soft and char better.

The problem is finding a good vegetarian one (no gelatin). I make them for my wife but they've only come out good once.

Real marshmallows not coated and not using artificial replacements for real sugar taste far nicer.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

I don't know why, but it still annoys the crap out of me that the plant that gives them the marshmallow flavor is from a swamp.

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

You mean the name? Marshmallows don't have much besides sugar and gelatin in them, the most plant material they get is some vanilla extract

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Homemade marshmallows are amazing. Did you try flavoring them? Peppermint and carmel are pretty good.

Is it worth the costs of all the ingredients?

Try honey and chai tea, or lavender cardamom. We made bacon marshmallows once and gave them away at a Fur Con.

But a little char is the best!

Yes. I burn, peel off the burnt layer to eat and re burn. I can usually get 5 or 6 good chars per mallow.

They'll char, but it takes a bit more time/heat. It is, however, far easier to get the superior tasting browning without overshooting.

6 years ago | Likes 20 Dislikes 0

Blackened is superior.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 2

The browning is good but I prefer char.

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

So like they don't go from cold to charcoal in about 3 milliseconds? Awesome!

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I mean, you have to toast them a bit to warm them all the way through, but the proper finishing move is straight up lighting them on fire.

I feel like JetPuff have kerosine in them or something the way they ignite.

6 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

It'd be the light dusting of corn starch that is likely to ignite on them.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Well, they're basically oil and sugar.

Egg whites? That sounds like it would need refrigeration.

I tended to keep them there anyway, because they don’t have the preservatives commercial ones do. Should use them within a couple weeks.

How much is "3 packages unflavored gelatin" in grams or something sensible?

6 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 1

In the states, you can buy gelatin on the store shelves, Knox. I imagine just three of those. 1 box contains 4 envelopes. So that my theory.

6 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

How many grams in one envelope? :)
