Vegan Marshmallows!

The first recipe is the one I used for the EarthSave event on August 26th, 2000.

This can be made into the cream if you stop beating about halfway through, or

taken all the way and made into marshmallows you can put on a stick and toast,

or dissolve in your hot soymilk chocolate. If you have a big KitchenAid stand

mixer or equivalent, use the wire whisk attachment, and be aware that things

take less time in these mixers. I think I beat this recipe too long for the

cream which is why it got a bit firmer than I would have liked. This went for 15

minutes in the KitchenAid, so if you have one of these mixers, you could

probably do it for less. Click on Emes Kosher Gel below for a link to a mail

order source. Andi's Vegan Marshmallows

* 2 1/2 TBSPS Veg Gelatin (such as Emes Kosher Gel)

* 1 1/2 CUP Sugar

* 1 CUP light corn syrup

* 1/2 cup COLD water

* 1/2 cup room temperature water

* 1/4 TSP salt *2 TBSPS Vanilla Extract (or the flavoring of your choice)

* Corn starch for dusting

 

1.Combine Gel and 1/2 cup COLD water in the bowl of a mixer with a whisk

attachment. Let stand for 1/2 an hour.

 

2. Mix the sugar, corn syrup, salt and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan. Stir it over

low heat until the sugar is dissolved and a syrup has formed.

 

3. Cook it until firmball stage [244 degrees Farenheit] (I *strongly* reccomend

that you get a candy thermometer if you don't already have one). Remove the pan

from heat, slowly and carefully pour the syrup into the gelatin/water mixture in

the bowl of your mixer. Beat the mixture at high speed until thick, white and

tripled in size (approximately 15 minutes. If you want to stop before then,

however, you get marshmallow creme which you can store in a jar and use like the

commercial stuff). Add the vanilla (or flavoring of your choice) and beat just

long enough to mix it.

 

4. Dust an 8X12 " glass baking pan with corn starch. Pour mixture into it, dust

the top with more corn starch. Wet your hands and pat the mixture to smooth out

the top. Dust it again.

 

5. Let it stand overnight to dry out, uncovered. The next morning, turn the

" marshmallow cake " onto a board and cut it into small pieces with a dry, HOT

knife. Dust again.

 

Makes about 45 Marshmallows.

 

NOTE: Since there has been such a heated debate regarding recipe copyrights, let

me say this: PLEASE share this recipe! :o) (just make sure to give me credit for

it! LOL)

 

Have a good day everyone!
