Marshmallow is a kind of a sponge-like foams, are produced from sugar or corn syrup, egg whites, gelatin, gum arabic and aromas. The traditional recipe is used instead of gelatin extract of marshmallow root - Althaea officinalis. From this plant came the name of the product marshmallow though now it is no longer used in the manufacture of marshmallows.
Origin Marshmallow is probably dated to the year 2000 BC Egyptians already knew the sweets made from marshmallow root in combination with honey. Foam marshmallows, commercially produced appeared on the market in the nineteenth century in France. The first marshmallow as we know were produced in 1948 in the USA. Then Alex Doumakes (Doumak Inc. founder's son), patented an "extrusion process", which revolutionized marshmallow production. Foam production process consists in mixing all ingredients in a foamed mixture. The mixture is formed by extrusion to form a soft rolls, cut into pieces, which are rolled individually in the cornstarch and powdered sugar. In the United States, a popular delicacy is stuffed with foam marshmallows at the end of a stick and briefly heated over a fire or over a gas stove. Then creates a caramelized, the outer skin and the interior becomes a liquid. Toasted foam can be enjoyed in its entirety or just the outer layer, again Grilling residue. Americans eat about 40 million kg per year marshmallow. International Day Marshmallow is celebrated on 31 July.
