Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons agar-agar powder
2 cups white sugar
¾ cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup confectioners' sugar, divided
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Mix agar-agar into 1/2 cup of cold water.
  • Bring sugar and 3/4 cup water to a boil in a saucepan. Do not stir once syrup begins to boil. Heat to 238 degrees F (114 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water and placed on a flat surface. Remove from heat and add the agar-agar. Pour syrup into a glass bowl; let cool briefly.
  • Beat the syrup using an electric mixer until thick and white. Mix in vanilla extract and salt until the marshmallow mixture is combined.
  • Mix 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and cornstarch together; spread over the bottom of a 9-inch baking pan. Pour the marshmallow mixture on top; let stand until firm, at least 1 hour.
  • Cut into square marshmallows using a wet knife. Dust with remaining confectioners' sugar.

VEGAN VANILLA MARSHMALLOWS

Yield About 2 dozen 1 1/2-inch mallows

Number Of Ingredients 16

The fluff
1/3 cup unflavored soy protein isolate 90%*
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon xantham gum
2/3 cup water
The syrup
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon Genutine**
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
The mallowing
1/2 cup Classic Coating, plus more for dusting
*Readily available at natural foods stores; make sure the label reads 90%.
**Genutine is a vegetable gelatin that is available online (visit www.le-sanctuaire.com).

Steps:

  • Lightly coat an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
  • MAKE THE FLUFF: In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together all ingredients until smooth. Put the bowl on the mixer and fit it with the whisk attachment. Beat the fluff on high speed until it triples in volume and forms firm peaks, about 7 to 8 minutes (it will resemble softly whipped cream). Stop the mixer.
  • PLACE THE SUGAR, Genutine, corn syrup, water, and salt in a food processor and process for 1 minute. Pour the syrup into a large saucepan and stir gently over high heat. Boil for 8 minutes, stirring often. The syrup will thicken, forming bubbles almost 1 inch in diameter; you should see flashes of the bottom of the pan as you stir. Stir in the vanilla.
  • RESTART THE MIXER on medium speed. Quickly scrape the syrup into the mixer bowl all at once and immediately increase the speed to high. Beat for 7 to 9 minutes on high speed; the candy will turn opaque white and fluffy, and nearly fill the bowl. Scrape it into the prepared pan. Place a large sheet of parchment paper spritzed with cooking spray on top and use both hands to smooth the marshmallow evenly into the corners. Let set at room temperature for another 4 to 6 hours.
  • Remove parchment and use a knife to loosen the marshmallow from the edges of the pan. Invert the slab onto a coating-dusted work surface and dust it with more coating. Cut into pieces and dip the sticky edges in more coating, patting off the excess.

Tips:

  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature (240°F or 116°C). This will prevent the marshmallows from being too soft or too hard.
  • Make sure the agar agar powder is completely dissolved in the water before adding it to the sugar syrup. This will prevent the marshmallows from being grainy.
  • Beat the marshmallow mixture until it is thick and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the marshmallows, making them light and airy.
  • Dust the cutting board with cornstarch or powdered sugar before cutting the marshmallows. This will prevent them from sticking to the knife or cutting board.
  • Store the marshmallows in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze the marshmallows for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

These vegan marshmallows are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for s'mores, hot chocolate, or just snacking on their own. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these marshmallows at home and enjoy them anytime you like.
