The Jews complained that in Mitzrayim they got meat. Here in the desert all they got was the 'mann'. They missed having meat. Hashem with all the patience in the world, gave us the 'slav' every evening. This was a bird- the meat.
These are little marshmallow birds..
NO WAIT!
don't close the page thinking marshmallows are too hard to make.
These are OH SO EASY you wont believe!
Not to mention Oh So Yummy!
Marshmallows Recipe
Ingredients:
3 Tbls powdered gelatine
1 cup cold water
1 cup sugar
1 cup icing sugar
1/4 cup syrup
2 egg whites
pinch salt
10 ml vanilla essence
Method:
1. Soak the gelatine in half a cup of water.
2. In a non stick pan, place the honey, sugars and other half cup water. Heat and stir until the sugar is melted.
3. Allow this syrup to boil for 6-7 minutes
4. In the meantime, start whisking the egg whites and salt until soft peaks form in a large bowl.
5. Turn the mixer back on and add the prepared syrup gradually to the egg white mixture.
6. While still beating, add the gelatine mixture and vanilla.
7. Leave the beater on and allow to mix for another almost 10 minutes. The mixture will get thicker and at least double in volume.
That's all it takes to make the marshmallow. Now to shape. If you just want marshmallow squares, line a dish with baking paper, grease and VERY generously cover with icing sugar. pour the mixture in and allow to set over night.
To make the Birds...
1. Fill a piping bag with the mixture.
no tip is necessarily.
2. Line a tray with baking paper. Grease and generously cover with icing sugar.
3. Squeeze a tear drop shape for the body by pulling back after squeezing.
4. For the head squeeze a small ball out pulling back and then forward.
Allow to stand over night. sprinkle with icing sugar before removing to stop them from sticking to your fingers and each other.
To make the eyes, dip a food paint brush/tooth pick/ear bud in food colouring and paint the eyes.
That's it!!
Wishing you a wonderful Shabbos!!
