How to dry marshmallow in an electric dryer
The first step is to make the base of the treat. To do this, the fruits are crushed in a blender and boiled a little over low heat with sugar or honey. If you want to add a light shade to the product, add the egg white. If you wish, you can not sweeten the mashed potatoes, but then the pastilles will be dry and brittle.
If desired, add grated nuts, cinnamon or orange or lemon zest for taste.
In order to prepare a delicacy in an electric dryer, you must:
- Make special trays out of parchment paper. To do this, the paper is folded so that the sides are obtained. The corners can be fastened with a stapler or tape.
- Place the paper structures in the trays of the electric dryer.
- Pour warm puree into trays. The layer of the future pastille should not be more than seven millimeters.
- Place the trays in the device, cover with a lid. The pastille should be dried at a temperature of 55 degrees.
Depending on the thickness of the layer, preparing the treat will take seven to ten hours. Periodically, the pallets need to be interchanged so that the pastila dries evenly in all trays. The main advantage of using an electric dryer is that you can not follow the cooking process, saving personal time.
The finished delicacy is carefully removed from paper trays, cut into strips. Or rolled into rolls and cut into slices. You can sprinkle the finished product with powdered sugar or sesame seeds.
