Marshmallows are soft chewy marshmallows that are easy to make at home. This requires a minimum of ingredients and some free time. Today we will cook marshmallows, but not simple ones, but with orange juice!
Ingredients
Orange juice – 60 ml
Sugar – 110 g
Instant gelatin – 5 g
Lemon juice – 0.5 teaspoon
Powdered sugar – 0.5 tbsp
Corn starch – 1 teaspoon
Sunflower oil (for lubricating the mold) – 1 teaspoon
Directions
Prepare all the ingredients you need.
Pour over instant gelatin with 30 ml of orange juice. Stir.
Leave the gelatin for 5 minutes to swell.
Combine sugar and remaining orange juice in a saucepan or saucepan.
Place a saucepan with juice and sugar on the stove. Let the sugar dissolve, then bring the syrup to a boil and immediately remove it from the stove.
Dissolve the gelatin with orange juice in a water bath.
Pour hot gelatin into a bowl.
Whisking gelatin with a mixer, pour all the hot orange syrup into it in a thin stream. Also, add lemon juice to balance the sweetness.
Beat the mixture until a white, thick, airy mass is obtained. If desired, you can add a couple of drops of orange dye to this mass.
Prepare the mold: line it with cling film and brush with a little sunflower oil. My mold is 10×15 cm. Put the marshmallow mass into this mold.
Cover with the overhanging plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour or until the marshmallows harden.
Mix the icing sugar and starch. After a while, remove the orange juice marshmallows from the mold and place them on a work surface, sprinkled with a mixture of powdered sugar and starch. Sprinkle the marshmallows with starch and powder on top.
Use a sharp knife to cut the marshmallows into small square or rectangular pieces. Dip the marshmallows in the powdered sugar and starch mixture so they don’t stick to each other.
