Marshmallow & Candied Fruits, Citrus Rinds, and Ginger

Hey ladies and ladies,

 

Sorry about the late post but here is what you all have been waiting for.

Last week, we made marshmallows and candied fruits & citrus rinds. Unfortunately, we are unable to taste the candied fruits & citrus rinds we made, but hopefully, we will get to taste those when we come back a week after our field trip.

Never the less, we still get to taste and present various flavor of marshmallows. We made vanilla, mint, cassis, orange blossom, and rose blossom. In addition to that selection – since we have extra time – we also made egg-less chocolate marshmallow and strawberry-lychee marshmallow. All marshmallow comes out good in texture especially the egg-less and the strawberry-lychee, although they might be a little sticky than the other because we do not have enough time to let them set longer. The flavor came out to be quite daring as well.

 

Here is our production of the day::::

cooking sugar right off the bat for the marshmallows

 

 

mixing the egg whites after the sugar syrup hits 240F
