The marshmallows most of us know are fluffy, useless things that are best melted down into rice krispies treats or toasted on pointy sticks over open fires. However, there's another version of marshmallow, one that you can make in your own kitchen, that are far superior to the ones you buy at the local grocery store for $1.29 a bag and they make an excellent edible holiday gift. Two years ago, Nicole Weston (during her Slashfood years) posted an excellent recipe for homemade marshmallows that will wow your friends and make your family praise your name (if you have questions about the recipe, make sure to read the comment section on the old post, it contains a bunch of helpful tips). The recipe is after the jump.
