I lied yesterday. I don’t feel like writing about chocolate today. I want to write about marshmallows. Since my first batch of homemade matcha kinako marshmallows, I made more, many many more. I feel like I am compensating for years of longing and neglect. Finally, I am not paying ridiculous amount of money for handmade marshmallows! It costs next to nothing to make at home and I get a large batch every time. I don’t recall a day since February when my house runs out of marshmallows. I’m in heaven.
Interestingly enough, I haven’t made any vanilla marshmallows even though that is most likely what I buy from stores. You know, the ones with fancy little specks of vanilla beans. I love the blank canvas of my homemade version and I took the opportunity to create a rainbow of pastel colours and delicate flavours.
