Strawberry marshmallows on agar

Enjoy the magical taste of homemade marshmallows! The marshmallow turns out very tender and airy, like a cloud. I made the berry puree from strawberries, so the marshmallows turned out to be a delicate pink color, with a rich strawberry aroma. I used frozen strawberries, after defrosting them and draining the liquid. Instead of strawberries, I think any berry will do: raspberries, blueberries, currants. You get a lot of marshmallows, but believe me, they are eaten very quickly. We started eating it within a few hours, because it was simply impossible to pass by it. The original recipe used more sugar, namely 250 g in puree and 450 g in syrup, I reduced the amount because I was afraid that it would be too sweet. You can use the original proportions or those that I indicated, but to be honest, I don’t know what exactly produces such a large amount of sugar.

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking timeCooking time: 8 hr 40 mins
  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Pour water over the agar and leave for 1-2 hours.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Prepare applesauce. Bake the apples (to get 150 g of finished puree I needed 350 g of apples) until cooked.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Rub the finished apples through a sieve.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Puree the berries (I used strawberries) and rub through a sieve.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Mix apple and berry puree, heat the mixture a little and add sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Add egg white to the cooled puree and beat until fluffy. You need to beat for a long time, about 10 minutes.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Boil the syrup. Place the mixture of agar and water on the fire and bring to a boil with constant stirring. Add sugar and, stirring constantly, bring the syrup to a temperature of 110 C or until a thread of syrup trails behind it when you lift the spatula.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Pour the finished syrup in a thin stream under the blades of a running mixer. Beat the mixture until a thick, smooth mass is obtained. The mixture should not cool too much; the agar begins to harden already at 40 C.

    STEP 9

    Using a pastry bag or spoon, pipe marshmallows onto baking paper. Leave overnight.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

Irisha, I read your recipe and wanted to make it. Before that, I tried to make marshmallows, just with sugar, to be honest, I didn’t like it, it was too sweet and very different from store-bought. More like sugar lumps. You use fruit puree and protein, I think it will be softer and tastier. Question: can I use gelatin, are the products similar? What if you add more than agar?

Tatyana, I haven’t tried making marshmallows like this with gelatin, I think then the technology should change, because it can’t be boiled, perhaps it will need to be added at the very end. I recommend making this dessert with gelatin https://bestrecipes24.com/cooking/11738-klubnichnye-oblaka. It turns out very tasty, even softer than marshmallows
