Recipe Introduction


Great substitute for store marshmallows.


List of Ingredients






1 1/4 cups cold water, divided
2 cups sugar
1/3 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. unflavored gelatin
powdered sugar



Recipe





Heavily dust an 8 or 9 inch square pan with powdered sugar.

Put half of the water in a large mixing bowl. Put the other half in a sauce pan. Add sugar to the saucepan and boil to 290° It should spin a thread.

While this is boiling, add gelatin to the mixing bowl and let soak at least 5 minutes.

When syrup is about done, add vanilla and salt to the gelatin. Do not stir yet.

When syrup has reached desired temperature, slowly pour it over gelatin, beating as you pour. Beat until the mixture is cold, then pour into the prepared pan. Cool one to two hours.

Cut into cubes and roll in powdered sugar. If the marshmallows stick to the knife, dip it in hot water. Use tooth picks to roll it in the sugar and place on waxed paper to dry.
