Advieh marshmallows
Arabic 30 Mins Prep · 15 Mins Cook
- To make the dusting mixture, mix together the icing sugar and cornstarch. Grease a large 22cm square baking tin with cooking spray or a thin layer of oil and dust the icing sugar mixture over – just enough to cover the surface.
- To make the marshmallows, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, combine the 125ml water and gelatine. Stir and allow to bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a small pot, combine the sugar, glucose syrup, 125ml water and salt. Place over a medium heat and bring to a boil. Boil until the sugar syrup reaches 120°C or soft-ball stage. Take off the heat immediately.
- Turn the mixer on and slowly pour the syrup in a steady stream down the inside of the bowl. Once all the syrup has been incorporated, leave to mix for a further 20 seconds.
- Increase the speed to high and whisk for another 8 minutes until thick. Add the rose water and advieh and immediately pour into the baking tin. Allow to set overnight.
- Dust a surface with the icing sugar mixture and turn the marshmallows out. Grease a knife with oil and dust it with the icing sugar mixture and cut the marshmallows into 5cm blocks. Dust the cut sides to prevent them from sticking together.
- Sprinkle the advieh and dried rose petals over the marshmallows. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 weeks.
