Marshmallows & S'mores

Simple Tile Oven Roasted Marshmallows 

  1. Buy home round, large marshmallows (should always be in the pantry from now on).
  2. Place a couple of marshmallows at the far end of a barbecue skewer or fork.
  3. Grill them over the flames in the tile oven, rotating the skewer so that it turns golden brown all around.
    Watch out - for a brief, brief moment the Marshmallows are that perfect golden brown and slightly melted, then the next moment they catch fire and disappear in a sugary blue welding flame!
  4. But it doesn't matter - when that happens, you just nimbly blow out the burning Marshmallow and eat it burnt, like American kids always did!J Just don't burn your tongue.

Other suggestions: grill the marshmallows until golden brown and hot, then dip in chocolate sauce and eat! 

Kom ihåg:  att rosta en Marshmallow perfekt gyllebrun är en konst!  

S'mores (Marshmallows and chocolate chip cookies)
 (S'mores got its name from all the little girl scouts who at countless American campfires yelled "Could I have some more?". Try saying that repeatedly really fast and you can probably guess why.)

A further development of this basic American cooking art are the delicious Marshmallow Biscuits. Every American family and Boy Scout troop is said to have its own tried-and-true recipe, passed down through the generations, but it usually goes like this:

  1. Take a cracker, like "Graham crackers". (So they are biscuits in the style of cheese tray biscuits, but not too salty. Some take Digestive biscuits, but they are actually a bit too crisp and sweet. But chocolate digestive biscuits are not bad for this!)
  2. Place a couple of squares of milk chocolate on the biscuit.
  3. Grill a marshmallow over the fire
  4. When the marshmallows are piping hot, remove them from the heat and place them on top of the chocolate chips on the biscuit and…
  5. … top the creation with another biscuit so that it forms a lovely "sandwish" of marshmallow/chocolate gojs. 

This is, of course, the dessert that follows only after a real home-grilled and sooty hot dog has been enjoyed, directly strung on a grill stick. Think, a whole meal can be made right at the tile stove in your own home! 

Enjoy!   

PS and to all you parents of toddlers out there: remember that even the fussiest foodie will eat what he grilled himself over the tile stove fire!J
