My personal favorites are desserts. What do you think to be an ultimate dessert for any season, weather, and occasion? I can imagine you recalling all the sweet things you have ever tried. Hmm. You are possibly thinking of the spicy warmth and richness of chocolate, light, dreamy texture of jelly, wintry freshness of ice-cream. They are all lovely, but not universal. My answer is simple, yet brilliant - it is the homemade marshmallow. This cheerful, fluffy, weightless dessert is the most delicious way to fruit yourself up in summer; in autumn you can experiment with apples and cinnamon; in winter it will become your hot mug's best friend; in spring you can prepare multi-colored marshmallows to get you in the Easter mood. The only problem with the homemade marshmallow is that it is just too good so you will always have to keep spare ingredients in store in case you feel like treating yourself to a piece of bliss.

All the mathematicians, physicists, software developers and other fans of numbers, calculations and the "Ordnung muss sein" principle, beware! Making homemade marshmallow is a kind of art that will release your creativity once and for all. After you have tried it, you will never be able to quench the thirst for experimenting with colors and smells. By adding different fruit, vegetables and herbs you can create homemade marshmallows for any taste and occasion: strawberries for lovers of everything pink, red blood oranges for the Twilight fans, pumpkin for the Halloween celebration, cranberry and rosemary for the Christmas mood. Marshmallow is a dessert that awakens your inspiration, so the recipe can be adapted, modified and even totally re-invented. But, if you are a secret agent, making homemade marshmallow can be risky - your culinary masterpiece may reveal too much about the personality of the enthusiastic confectioner.

The ones who are not afraid of letting their true nature shine with the help of the magic of cooking need to know that marshmallow is not only a dessert but also a medicine. Most likely, it was first employed as a remedy for a sore throat, since it was prepared from the extract of the althea root. Since the time of Ancient Egypt, the root of Althea has been used in combination with honey in the treatment of angina. A later French version of the recipe, called pate de guimauve (or simply guimauve), contained egg whites and was often flavored with rose water. Pate de guimauve is most reminiscent of the modern marshmallows, which no longer contain althea, and yet are good for your health. Thanks to the many natural ingredients used to create this yummy treat, marshmallow is beneficial to the human system. Gelatin, its fundamental ingredient, positively affects the joints, helps them recover faster and protects them from damage. Gelatin also accelerates the healing of fractures. Marshmallow can even be applied as a mask to improve the elasticity of the skin. It has a lot of collagen, which positively affects hair and nails, strengthening them. Food with high collagen content is recommended for normalizing blood pressure and stabilizing the nervous system. Finally, bright, sweet marshmallow cubes can effectively improve your mood and fill you with positive energy.

Who said perfect love does not exist? They have not tried homemade marshmallows. Rich in taste, smell and color, these little fluffy clouds of sweet delight will win your heart and love you back as long as you want. In addition, they will make you healthier, more intelligent and attractive, more balanced and energized. What more could one ask for?
