Did you know that the real marshmallow was actually a root of a plant named “marsh mallow”? They resemble the store-bought marshmallows, but these roots are a bit tough instead of fluffy and soft like the ones you love. Nowadays, the marshmallows are usually made from sugar, water and gelatine that are then moulded into solid and soft shapes.
Aside from those ingredients, here are the other ingredients that play vital roles in your favourite squishy dessert!
- Protein (Important for the formation of the surface of the marshmallows).
- Albumen (This is egg whites used to create foams which makes it fluffy).
- Corn Syrup (Prevents crystallization of other sugars).
- Flavours (Usually vanilla is used as the flavouring).
- Acids (To increase foam stability).
Here are some fluffy and soft marshmallows recommendations for you!
