Marshmallow Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup marshmallow root tea from dried or powdered root (1 tbsp to one cup)

1 cup sugar or honey

1 packet unflavoured gelatine

1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Combine 1 cup of warm water with the 1 tablespoon of Marshmallow Root and let sit for 5 minutes (or as long as overnight in the fridge), Stir well and strain. Make sure that the liquid makes a whole cup.
2. Pour ½ cup of marshmallow mix into the bowl and add the gelatine. Whisk slightly to incorporate and let sit.
3. Pour the other ½ cup of water and the 1 cup of honey or sugar into the small saucepan. Slowly bring the water and sugar/honey mixture to a boil. If you have a kitchen thermometer, you want it to reach at least 240 degrees. If not, just keep boiling, stirring constantly for 8 minutes.
4. Using a hand mixer begin to mix the marshmallow and gelatin mixture on low. Slowly start pouring the hot liquid into the bowl with the gelatin and add the vanilla extract.
5. When all liquid is added, turn the mixer to high and blend for another 10-15 minutes or until it forms a stiff cream the consistency of marshmallow cream (it should form gentle peaks).
6. When marshmallows are whipped, pour into the lined/greased dish and smooth evenly. Let sit at least 4 hours (overnight is better).

Store in an airtight container.
