Keep Cooking: <strong>Eight</strong> Treats<br />

1. <strong>Chanukah</strong> Marshmallows ​by Shoshana Ohriner<br />

INGREDIENTS<br />

● ½ cup + 2 Tablespoons cold water<br />

● 1 1/2 Tablespoons pure vanilla extract<br />

● 3 Tablespoons powdered gelatin<br />

● 3/4 cup cold water<br />

● 1 ¼ cups marshmallow syrup (see recipe below)<br />

● pinch of salt<br />

● 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar<br />

● 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons potato starch<br />

● ½ cup confectioners’ sugar<br />

Marshmallow Syrup<br />

● 2 cups water • 5 1/2 cups granulated sugar • 1 teaspoon cream of<br />

tartar • pinch of salt<br />

INSTRUCTIONS<br />

Lightly spray an 11 x 15 jelly roll pan <strong>with</strong> non-stick cooking spray. Rub gently <strong>with</strong> a paper towel to distribute<br />

the spray, leaving just a sheen of oil on the sheet. Similarly, lightly spray a large offset spatula and set aside.<br />

Combine the first three ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well blended and smooth. Set aside.<br />

Combine remaining water, marshmallow syrup, salt and sugar in a 4-quart saucepan. Place over medium heat.<br />

When mixture boils, brush down the sides of the pan above the upper surface of the syrup <strong>with</strong> a moistened<br />

pastry brush, or cover the pot two minutes to allow the condensation to dissolve any lingering crystals.<br />

Place a candy thermometer in the syrup and continue to cook, ​<strong>with</strong>out stirring​, until syrup reaches 250F.<br />

Remove pan from heat and carefully stir in gelatin mixture.<br />

Pour mixture into the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted <strong>with</strong> the whisk attachment. Quickly cover bowl <strong>with</strong><br />

loosely draped plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel in order to avoid splatters, and gradually increase the mixer<br />

speed to “high”. Whip mixture for 10-12 minutes. Scrape into prepared pan. Spread <strong>with</strong> oiled offset spatula.<br />

Set marshmallow aside, uncovered, at room temperature for at least 4 hours or overnight before cutting.<br />

Before cutting the marshmallow, sift the potato starch and confectioners sugar together into a medium mixing<br />

bowl. Cut marshmallows <strong>with</strong> a lightly oiled knife or pizza cutter and break into individual pieces. Toss <strong>with</strong><br />

potato starch mixture to completely coat, shaking off excess as much as possible in a strainer.<br />

Store in an airtight container <strong>with</strong> the lid slightly ajar for up to two weeks (but they are best the first week).<br />
