MARSHMALLOW PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A23G3/48 A23G3/52 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: marshmallow production method is proposed, which involves preparing agar-fructose-treacle syrup, for which purpose dry powdered agar is mixed in a technological vessel with water at the temperature of 15°C and the water duty 1:30, left to swell for 1 hour, then the swollen agar is quickly dissolved while heating in a cooking vat with a stirrer, fructose is added; after its complete dissolution, treacle pre-warmed to the temperature of 60°C is introduced, the mixture is boiled out in a coil cooking column at t=112°C up to the mass fraction of dry substances 86±1%, the resulting syrup is cooled in a tempering machine to t=95±2°C; for preparing the whipped mass, dry egg white is soaked in warm water at the temperature of 35-40°C, at the dry protein-water ratio of 1:3 for 20-30 minutes, the fructose is further mixed with powder of Jerusalem artichoke and apple puree, half of the recovered egg white is added and whipped in a whipping machine for 4 min, the remaining egg white is added, whipped for 4 minutes, then lactic acid, vanilla essence, red colouring, agar-fructose-treacle syrup are added and stirred for 1-2 min for the uniform distribution of the formulation components; the finished mass is moulded by the method of depositing by means of a marshmallow-depositing machine onto trays, directed for curing, drying, glazing with chocolate icing, cooled, and packed. Marshmallow is prepared at the following ratio of the formulation components, wt %: chocolate icing 33.88; fructose 40.18; treacle 8.32; apple puree 13.19; powder from Jerusalem artichoke 2.33; egg white 1.00; agar 0.51; lactic acid 0.40; vanilla essence 0.13; red colouring 0.06.

EFFECT: invention allows to improve the quality of products, to increase the shelf life, to reduce the sugar content, to obtain marshmallows of the functional purpose using powder from Jerusalem artichoke and fructose, allows to expand the raw material base for the marshmallow production.
