VANILLA MARSHMALLOWS
Homemade marshmallows should have their own dreamy name, something that makes it clear that they're different from the supermarket stuff. When you make this recipe by Christine Moore of Little Flower Candy Co., you get puffs that are soft, tender, languidly stretchy and delicately sweet, and a lesson in the transformative power of heat and air. To make these, you beat together roiling-hot sugar syrup and gelatin, and watch as the mixture goes from murky to opaque, from beige to white, from thin to billowing. For this magic to happen, it takes almost 15 minutes, plus a very large bowl and a sturdy mixer. (I use a 5-quart stand mixer.) You need no special skills, just patience - you have to wait a few hours for the whipped mixture to dry - but you'll be rewarded with singular sweets good for toasting, s'mores, snacking and wrapping up as gifts.

Steps:
- Pour 3/4 cup/180 milliliters cold water into the bowl of a stand mixer. Sprinkle the gelatin on top, and set aside until the gelatin has absorbed the liquid and expanded, 5 to 8 minutes, stirring after 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the granulated sugar, corn syrup and the remaining 3/4 cup/180 milliliters water to a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Clip a candy thermometer to the pan or have an instant-read thermometer at hand. Boil until the syrup reaches 240 degrees, 5 to 6 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat.
- Fit the mixer with the whisk attachment, turn to low and slowly add the syrup, pouring it down the sides of the bowl. Add the extract and the vanilla-bean seeds (or extra extract). When the syrup is fully incorporated, gradually increase the mixer speed to high, and whip until the mixture is thick and cooled to room temperature, about 12 minutes.
- While the marshmallow mixture is whipping, coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Combine the cornstarch and confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl, then generously dust the inside of the pan with some of the cornstarch mixture. (It's important that the bottom of the pan be very well covered.)
- Coat a plastic bowl scraper and your hand with nonstick spray. Scrape the marshmallow mixture into the pan. Use the flat side of the scraper to get the mixture into the corners of the pan and to even out the surface. Sift some of the cornstarch mixture over the top. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and let rest for at least 4 hours before cutting.
- Cut the marshmallows: Dust a chef's knife with some of the cornstarch mixture; dust a piece of parchment paper, too. Run the knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the marshmallow mixture, then turn it out onto the parchment. Cut the slab into 1 1/2-inch squares. Dust all sides of the marshmallows with the cornstarch mixture by dropping a few marshmallows at a time into the bowl, tossing them around and then tossing each one from hand to hand to shake off the excess. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Using a small, sharp knife split the vanilla beans lengthwise and scrape the seeds into a small bowl. Reserve the vanilla bean pods. Transfer about one-third of the seeds to a second small bowl and add 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar. Using a mortar or the back of a spoon, pound and mix together. Add the remaining confectioners' sugar and stir to combine. Cover and let stand at least 1 hour. DO AHEAD: Vanilla sugar can be made ahead and stored, in an airtight container at room temperature, indefinitely.
- Add the bourbon to the remaining vanilla seeds and whisk to disperse the seeds. Set aside.
- Brush the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan with vegetable oil. Using a small, fine-mesh sieve, dust the pan generously with the vanilla sugar, knocking out any excess.
- Put 1/2 cup water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Sprinkle the gelatin into the bowl and stir briefly to make sure all the gelatin is in contact with water. Let soften while you make the sugar syrup.
- In a heavy 3- to 4-quart saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, salt, and 1/2 cup water. Place over moderate heat and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Add the scraped vanilla bean pods to the pot then put a candy thermometer into the boiling sugar syrup and continue boiling (the mixture may foam up, so turn the heat down slightly if necessary), without stirring, until the thermometer registers 240°F (soft-ball stage). Remove the saucepan from the heat and let stand briefly until the bubbles dissipate slightly. Using tongs, carefully remove the vanilla bean pods and discard.
- With the mixer on low speed, pour the hot sugar syrup into the softened gelatin in a thin stream down the side of the bowl. Gradually increase the mixer speed to high and beat until the marshmallow is very thick and forms a thick ribbon when the whisk is lifted, about 5 minutes. Whisk the bourbon-vanilla seed mixture to disperse the seeds, then add to the marshmallow and beat until incorporated.
- Scrape the marshmallow into the prepared pan (it will be very sticky) and use wet fingertips to spread it evenly and smooth the top. Let stand, uncovered at room temperature, until the surface is no longer sticky and you can gently pull the marshmallow away from the sides of the pan with your fingertips, at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Dust a cutting board with vanilla sugar. Use a rubber spatula to pull the sides of the marshmallow from the edge of the pan (use the spatula to loosen the marshmallow from the bottom of the pan if necessary) and invert onto the cutting board. Dust the top with vanilla sugar. Brush a long thin knife or a chef's knife with vegetable oil and dust with vanilla sugar to prevent sticking; continue dusting the knife as necessary. Cut lengthwise into 8 strips, then crosswise into eighths, to form a total of 64 squares. (For larger marshmallows, cut lengthwise into 6 strips, then crosswise into sixths, to form a total of 36 squares.) Coat marshmallows, one at a time, in confectioners' sugar, using a pastry brush to brush off any excess. DO AHEAD: Marshmallows can be stored, layered between sheets of wax paper or parchment in an airtight container in a dry place at cool room temperature, for 1 month.

Steps:
- Pour water in the bowl of a stand mixer (with whisk attachment) and sprinkle gelatin on top. Make sure all gelatin has been moistened so that there is no longer any white powder. Set aside, so gelatin can bloom, while completing the next steps. Spray the bottom and sides of the pan of your choice with cooking spray. In a small bowl, mix together powdered sugar and cornstarch. Coat greased pan with sugar/cornstarch mix, thoroughly covering the bottoms and sides. It is easier if you use a sifter to coat the pan as it will create an even dusting. Set remaining powder/cornstarch aside for now. In a small saucepan, add ingredients in this order: salt, evaporated milk, Fireball whisky, then sugar. Without mixing, warm saucepan over medium heat. Bring mixture to a gentle boil. Immediately add a candy thermometer and watch the temperature, reducing heat to control boiling if necessary. Ideally you want the temperature to get as close to 240°F before sugar mixture begins to bubble over. Once you can no longer boil the sugar mix without overflowing, go ahead and move on to the next step. (The highest my mixture got to was 210°F before it almost boiled over.) Slowly pour the hot sugar mixture in with the gelatin. Begin to whisk on low, breaking up the gelatin and incorporating it with the warm sugar. Once gelatin has dissolved, add any food coloring (optional - I used 1 drop of red and 2 drops of yellow) then set the mixer speed to high and beat for 15-17 minutes. Mixture is ready once it has turned a solid color, has doubled in size, and is thick enough to cause lasting ripples and waves in the batter. Tips for hand mixers: For the first 5 minutes of mixing, hold the mixer near one end of the bowl and tip the opposite side of the bowl so that it is leaning toward the mixer. This trick will cause the fluid in the bowl to fall toward while the mixer pushes the fluid back up, giving you a more even mix. Once the marshmallow mixture is no longer clear, set bowl back on the counter and mix like normal, making sure to rotate the mixer around the sides and through the middle. Pour fluffed marshmallow mix into the prepared pan. Used a greased spatula to help smooth out the top, if needed. Finish off by dusting the top with more sugar/cornstarch mix. Let marshmallows set for 6 hours if using a baking sheet. If using a smaller pan, like a 9x13 pan, let the marshmallows stand for 8 hours. When ready to cut, grease and dust the cookie cutters with the cornstarch/powered sugar mixture. Proceed to cut out the marshmallows. Store marshmallows in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

- Combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and remaining 3/4 cup water in a large saucepan over medium-high; bring to a boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer inserted in mixture registers 250°F. Pour sugar mixture into the bowl of a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment; let stand until mixture reaches 210°F, about 5 minutes.
- Microwave gelatin mixture on HIGH until gelatin melts, about 20 seconds, stirring after 10 seconds. Beating on low speed, gradually pour gelatin mixture in a thin stream into sugar mixture; add vanilla. Increase speed to high, and beat until light and fluffy, 9 to 10 minutes. Using a lightly greased spatula, spread mixture evenly in a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Let stand until dry and firm, about 2 hours.
- Sift together powdered sugar and cornstarch; spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Using a lightly greased offset spatula, remove marshmallow mixture from dish, and place in powdered sugar mixture. Using kitchen shears well coated with powdered sugar mixture, cut marshmallows into 1-inch squares. Coat all cut sides of marshmallows with powdered sugar mixture, tossing lightly to remove excess. Store marshmallows in an airtight container.

- Lay out a clean kitchen towel on the counter. Place a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan on the towel, then spray generously with nonstick oil spray. Thoroughly dust with one-third of the cornstarch-sugar mixture over the bottom and sides of the pan, then shake and tap the pan to make sure the mixture coats then pan evenly. Return any remaining mixture to the bowl for later use. Stash the baking pan within arm’s reach.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, pour in 1/2 cup of the water, then sprinkle the gelatin into an even layer over the surface. Let sit for 5 minutes to bloom; if, after 5 minutes, you still see dry gelatin, drizzle on just enough extra water to barely cover. Let that sit for another minute or two to hydrate.
- Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1/2 cup water, the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and the salt in a 2-quart saucepan. Place over medium-high heat, cover, and allow to cook until the mixture begins to simmer around the edges of the pot, about 3 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240°F on a digital instant-read thermometer, approximately 8 more minutes. If you notice sugar crystals forming on the sides of the pot, use a wet pastry brush to wipe down and dissolve the crystals. When the mixture reaches the target temp, immediately remove from the heat.
