Basic Marshmallows

13/4 cups granulated sugar

11/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons water, divided

1 cup light corn syrup

3 1/4-ounce envelopes unflavored gelatin

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 cup (about) powdered sugar, and more for dusting

1/2 cup (about) cornstarch

Lightly oil a 9- by 13-inch pan and sprinkle it with a little powdered sugar. In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of water and the corn syrup. Stir gently, just to wet the sugar. Cover and bring to a boil without further stirring. Uncover, clip candy thermometer to side of the pan and heat without stirring to 240 degrees.

When the syrup has started to boil, put remaining 1/2 cup of cold water in the large bowl of an electric mixer and sprinkle the gelatin over it, stir to wet any lumps of gelatin and let it soften at least a minute.

Slowly pour the 240-degree syrup into the gelatin mixture, beating it in at low speed. (Be sure to see hints about pouring the hot syrup.) Once all the syrup has been added, increase the mixer speed to high and beat, scraping the bowl frequently. When the mixture becomes opaque and begins to thicken, add the vanilla.

Continue beating at high speed, scraping frequently and stopping occasionally to check the thickness of the mixture (see hints). When it is properly thickened, pour and scrape it into the prepared pan, and set it aside 2 hours or more, until it is fully cooled.

Run a table knife around all four sides to loosen. Sift a little powdered sugar over the top, and also over a sheet of waxed paper on the countertop. Invert the pan onto the paper, slap it on the bottom and lift one side of the pan. If the marshmallow isn't easing itself out, pry at a corner with a table knife, working along and under until it starts to come out.

Dust what's now the top with a little more powdered sugar. Combine the cup of powdered sugar and 1/2 cup of cornstarch in a shallow bowl. Oil a knife (or better, a pizza cutter or kitchen shears) and slice the marshmallow crosswise into 10 strips, cleaning and reoiling the cutter as needed. Cut one strip into eight pieces, and toss them in the powdered-sugar mixture to coat all sides, then shake off excess in a sieve or colander. Repeat with remaining strips. Store wrapped or covered. Makes about 80.

Marshmallows

Recipe Summary
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 5 hours
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Yield: about 96 marshmallows

About 1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 1/2 envelopes (2 tablespoons plus 2 1/2 teaspoons) unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup hot water (about 115 degrees)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla

Oil bottom and sides of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch rectangular metal baking pan and dust bottom and sides with some confectioners' sugar.
In bowl of standing electric mixer or in a large bowl sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let stand to soften.

In a 3-quart heavy saucepan cook granulated sugar, corn syrup, hot water, and salt over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to moderate and boil mixture, without stirring, until a candy or digital thermometer registers 240 degrees, about 12 minutes. Remove pan from heat and pour sugar mixture over gelatin mixture, stirring until gelatin is dissolved.

With standing or a hand-held electric mixer beat mixture on high speed until white, thick and nearly tripled in volume, about 6 minutes if using standing mixer or about 10 minutes if using hand-held mixer. In a large bowl with cleaned beaters beat whites (or reconstituted powdered whites) until they just hold stiff peaks. Beat whites and vanilla into sugar mixture until just combined. Pour mixture into baking pan and sift 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar evenly over top. Chill marshmallow, uncovered, until firm, at least three hours, and up to 1 day.

Run a thin knife around edges of pan and invert pan onto large cutting board. Lifting up 1 corner of inverted pan, with fingers loosen marshmallow and let drop onto cutting board. With a large knife trim edges of marshmallow and cut marshmallows into roughly 1-inch cubes. Sift remaining confectioners' sugar into a large bowl and add marshmallows in batches, tossing to evenly coat. Marshmallow keep in an airtight container at cool room temperature 1 week.
