Introduction

Marshmallows are one of the most popular sweets in the world, with their fluffy texture and sweet taste. They can be used in a variety of recipes, from hot chocolate to s'mores. Making your own marshmallows may seem daunting, but it's actually quite simple. In this article, we'll be sharing a delicious marshmallow recipe that you can make at home in the UK.

Ingredients

Here's what you'll need:
  • 3 tbsp gelatine powder
  • 200ml water
  • 500g granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Icing sugar and cornflour, for dusting

Instructions

Follow these steps to make your own marshmallows:
  1. Mix the gelatine powder and 100ml of water in a bowl. Let it sit while you prepare the sugar syrup.
  2. In a large saucepan, combine the remaining 100ml of water, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved.
  3. Once the sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Do not stir the mixture once it has started boiling.
  4. Using a candy thermometer, cook the mixture until it reaches 120°C. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
  5. Remove the mixture from the heat and slowly pour it into the bowl with the gelatine mixture, while whisking constantly. Be careful not to splash the hot mixture.
  6. Continue whisking the mixture until it becomes thick and frothy. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Pour the mixture into a greased and lined baking tray. Smooth out the top with a spatula.
  8. Let the marshmallow set at room temperature for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  9. Once the marshmallow has set, dust a clean surface with icing sugar and cornflour. Turn the marshmallow out onto the surface and dust the top with more icing sugar and cornflour.
  10. Using a sharp knife, cut the marshmallow into squares. Dust the cut edges with more icing sugar and cornflour.
  11. Your homemade marshmallows are ready to enjoy!
