MARSMALLOW
- 660 gm egg whites ------------------------ - 150
gm light corn syrup - 825 gm sugar - water ( about 1 cup) - flavors
1 tsp - 18 leaves gelatin
---- pipe about
600 --- In a stainless
steel pot cook together the ingredients above the line. - When the sugar mixture reaches the boiling
point , turn the mixer on 2nd speed - Meanwhile, count the gelatin and soak it in cold water just
as long as necessary to make it soft . Then strongly drain the water away by squeezing it between hands . Keep on the
side Also keep in mind that if the gelatin is over soaked . it becomes difficult to drain it appropriately ,and
by adding it so to the cooked sugar , it will dramatically change its temperature - When
the sugar seems to reach its cooking level (149C or 300F) , keep an eye on it , then add the vanilla extract and the
gelatin . Stir well using a wooden spatula - Meanwhile , turn the mixer on 3rd speed and be ready
to pour the hot mix into firm whites. -
When the sugar is added to beating whites, let turn on 3rd speed until lukewarm - Insert
a plain piping tips into a piping bag and fill in with the marshmallow . - Pipe a small peak of
the meringue on each little round cookie - Wait for about 10 min before applying the chocolate
coating by dipping upside-down the kisses one by one into the tempered chocolate * the cooking level of the sugar should be the “hard ball”(121°Celsius
or 250°F) but because of the adding of the gelatin that bring down the temperature , it is necessary to reach
the “hard crack” (141C) |
