Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 envelopes unflavored vegetarian " gelatin " -- (2 tbsp) see Note*

1 1/4 cups water

2 cups sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup powdered sugar

 

Soften gelatin in 3/4 cup of water and set aside. Place remaining 1/2 cup water

and granulated sugar in medium sized saucepan. Cook until small amount dropped

in cold water forms soft ball (240ºF).

 

Remove syrup from heat, add softened gelatin and stir until almost cold. Add

salt and flavoring. Beat until syrup is white and thick (8 minutes with an

electric beater).

 

Pour to 1 inch thickness in two 8 inch square pans that have been greased and

dusted with powdered sugar. Let set in cool place about an hour -- do not place

in refrigerator.

 

Turn out on board that has been well dusted with powdered sugar. Cut into 1 inch

cubes.

NOTES : Emes and Kojel are two brands of vegetarian " gelatin " . They are

available at kosher food stores, Seventh Day Adventist stores, or online from

KosherGrocer (http://www.koshergrocer.com) or Pangea (http://www.pangeaveg.com).

They are kosher gelatins but, BEWARE, all kosher gelatins are NOT vegetarian --

these two brands are. Emes may be out of business, but I have still been able

to find their gelatin for sale.

Marshmallows4

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Candies

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3 tablespoons vegetarian " gelatin " -- see Note*

1/2 cup water

2 cups sugar

3/4 cup light corn syrup

1/2 cup water

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons vanilla extract

 

Soften gelatin in water for 1 hour.

 

Prepare a syrup. Place in a heavy pan over low heat and stir until dissolved

the sugar, corn syrup, water and salt.

 

When the mixture start to boil, cover it about 3 minutes to allow any crystals

which have formed to be washed down from the sides of the pan. Continue to cook

uncovered and unstirred over high heat to the firm-ball stage (244ºF).

Overcooking makes the marshmallows tough. Remove the mixture from heat and pour

slowly over the gelatin, beating constantly with an electric mixer. Continue to

beat about 15 minutes after all the syrup has been added. When the mixture is

thick but still smooth, add vanilla.

 

Put the mixture into an 8 x 12 in pan that has been lightly dusted with

cornstarch. When it has dried for 12 hours, remove it from the pan, cut it into

square with scissors dusted with cornstarch, and store the fully dusted pieces

in a closed tin.

 

VARIATIONS:

 

Chocolate-Mint Marshmallows: Substitute creme de menthe for the vanilla, cut

the marshmallows into desired shapes and dip in melted chocolate.

 

Coconut Candies: Substitute coconut extract for the vanilla and roll the damp

marshmallows in toasted coconut instead of cornstarch.
