Belevskaya marshmallow in Lequip D5 Eco dehydrator

[Elvira]

Did you make Belevskaya pastila using a weak mixer and in a low power dryer?

Elvira, no, it was in Mystery that I didn’t do it, I did it in TRAVOLA, which is more convenient for drying.
But if a person has only one dryer available, and he really wants marshmallow, then let it dry, dry it anyway.

Mystery mine dries well plums, grapes, bananas, tomatoes, laid out in one layer. And the marshmallow will dry. How is it different from other products?

And you need to have a mixer at least 300 watts, and preferably 450, if it's manual, like mine

dry in any way.

Yes, I do not argue, it will dry out anyway. Only it can be dried without losing its softness, tenderness and fluffiness, which is what Belevskaya marshmallow is so famous for, or it is possible to a tannic state that the marshmallow is more like cardboard, which can only be bitten off after sharpening the teeth. Therefore, if there is a positive result, it will be easier for girls to decide to make marshmallow, having such dryers.

We continue the conversation ..
Another experiment was carried out yesterday.
I baked the apples, drained the juice, and strained it again through a sieve. I added cherries, raspberries to the puree, boiled with pectin. I whipped the mass into a very strong peak, or rather, deliberately interrupted the mass and laid it on pallets covered with linen cloth. Three pallets were on cloth and one on paper. I set it at 14 hours .. But after 12 I was already looking.
The mass takes less time on the fabric than 12 hours. After 12 hours, I took out completely cardboard layers, they were very dry and very fragile. When removing tissue from one layer, it just cracked. On paper, one pallet was dried for half an hour longer, that is, 12.5 hours. But it was softer, although the paper was traditionally not shot very well. The layers were not laid down. I immediately began to work with them. While the last one was being dried on paper, the previous ones lay in the kitchen, but during this time they did not become softer, unlike the layers that are dried on paper. While you remove the paper from one, the others gradually become softer.
There were slight difficulties with the interlayer of soufflé, when pressed for better adhesion, the layers "threatened" to crack, which does not happen with layers dried on paper.
It takes less time to dry on the fabric, exactly how much, I can't say. Probably 10 hours is enough.
But I will no longer dry on fabric. All the same, paper is more familiar to me. Even if the mass is broken into a very strong peak, the layers, although they will be cardboard, but a little later they begin to become soft, this does not happen with the layers on the fabric.
When dry, everything softened predictably. Delicious. Soft about. Fragrant. Chershenevo-raspberry.
And I repeat once again, different apples give different results, just like the same apples also give different results ..
But in the end, the marshmallow always turns out.

After straining the juice through a sieve.



Mass after straining.



The mass was specially cut into a very strong peak.



Result. On a fabric backing. The layer is slightly wrinkled-burst-split ..



Difference between layers. On the left, the layer was dried on a cloth. On the right, the layer is dried on paper. On the fabric, the layer turns out to be very even, but cardboard. On paper with wrinkles, but soft.



Final result.

[Galina]

Galina, what a little thing turned out, I'm now drying an apple and an apple cherry.

what a cute little thing

Len, well, in general, the final result is predictable for the most part, but I will not do this, as I described everything above. Did not like.I didn’t like the layers, I didn’t like the fact that it’s hard to layer them evenly, the edges of the fabric pastila went up .. All the same, paper ones are more predictable ..
But who wants to try, then of course let him try, and then tell you what happened.

Only can be dried without losing its softness, tenderness and fluffiness

can. But it is more convenient to dry in tunnel type dryers. Or in the EDGE. That is, in dryers, where there is uniform airflow over all trays at once.
And in simple dryers, you will have to change trays in places, which the girls should do and share their experience. What technique we have, with that we gain experience. I have experience that a small dryer dries well.
I wanted to calm down Tale about the dryer

And the oakiness of the cake does not depend much on the dryer, it’s like preparing an apple-protein mass, which Galya-gavala constantly writes about.

But in the end, the marshmallow always turns out.

[Galina]

Galina, I get wavy edges on paper, I think this is due to the fact that I have a fan at the bottom, this is my opinion.
I here somehow showed my "glass" layers that I dried on a synthetic mesh, so they lay for about two days and became soft, I then even rolled them into a tube.
I found

these, this was my second marshmallow, dried up so I barely tore it off the trays, and I’m even more silent about the mesh, they crumbled into small pieces, left them on the pallets until they softened.

the edges of the cloth pastille went up.

Galina, they are then leveled during the final drying process, I sandwich and then cover with the next cake and press it from the top with a not very cutting board, the soaked cakes do not soak a lot and are leveled. After drying it turns out more or less evenly.

they are then leveled during the final drying process

Len, well, that's all clear. But I need to immediately layer it and remove it to dry. Therefore, for me personally, paper is still more optimal. I do not urge not to do on the fabric. I describe only my experience, and it is not the ultimate truth. It would be nice if other ladies also wrote their experience. After all, it is different for everyone and the methodology is also different. Everyone adapts to do what is most convenient for them. Well, it should be described, it will be interesting.

[Galya]

Galya, I completely agree with you, if we share our experience, then it will be easier for others, I did not dare to make a marshmallow for a very long time, I re-read all the comments, and even after that I was going to do it for a long time. It seemed to me that it was very difficult, but in reality everything turns out to be simple.

[Lyi]

Lyi, thanks, thanks: a-kiss: for the science

The fact is that 900 grams was not enough for me to fill the pallet, that is, I need to add more.
The summer resident dries thoroughly. Already began to think about the second dryer.



After all, Galya did not pour powder at once, I did it only today.
The eldest son is especially delighted, and all of mine really like it.

Photo where? We don't trust anyone without a photo ..

P.S. Guests arrived and ate all the marshmallow ..

[Kokoschka]

The fact is that 900 grams was not enough for me to fill the pallet, that is, I need to add more.

Kokoschka, the volume depends on the variety of apples and on the degree of whipping in a blender, my fluctuations were from 1.1 kg to 900 g, but usually they are immediately visible, since the peel is very thick and not at all juicy. But I filled the "glue" pallet, under the ruler, as he says gawala... I sometimes adjust the volume precisely by the degree of beating, I have already decided in the bowl itself, when I beat it, whether it is worth beating more or the volume is already sufficient. Do not worry, you will do it several times and everything will fall into place, you will whip exactly as much as you need for the pallet, or you pour the whole mass into this pallet, and next you adjust how much you need to leave for spreading.
Do not forget to take into account that this amount should be left to smear dried layers from the same volume?
Good luck.

[Lily]

Lily, I'm not Stanislavsky, but I'm just like Galya

We don't trust anyone without a photo ..

A little later I will show my cherry, I have never been so fluffy and tender,

I haven’t managed to be gentle yet,

The more often you do it, the higher the skill.

[Elena]

Elena, Helen, happy birthday, dear! Happiness, health, family well-being and success in all your affairs, especially in the hard pastille business!

Elena, Lenochka, happy birthday, dear! Happiness, health, family well-being and success in all your affairs, especially in the hard pastille business!

I join in the congratulations!

I have never been so fluffy and tender,

Remember how you did it. To repeat later. I have nothing to do, so I am doing experiments, now paper, now cloth, then something else .. The hand is already full, the eye is trained. In principle, I already do it without looking. But sometimes I am tempted to experiment ..

Cherry layer

apple layer

apple always turns out wavy
Before final drying

it's already finished

well and cutter of course


She dried it from 11 o'clock in the morning until three o'clock in the morning. I rearranged the trays every hour, dried them for 2.5 hours. It turned out to be so soft and tender as a downy pirina that you can eat with your lips. In fact, it is even brighter.

In fact, it is even brighter.

Where is brighter then?

[Check mark]

Where is brighter then?

Check mark, take my word for it, the fotik does not convey the colors very correctly.
Girls thank everyone for the congratulations, I am very pleased! I am all of you

take my word

I believe.

Lena, it's a very smart marshmallow. This time I didn’t photograph my marshmallow. It turned out like the previous one, soft and tender. For myself, I concluded that for a soft marshmallow you need a thick puree. True, layers of such mashed potatoes are dried much longer. Mine dried for 16 hours, it was possible to dry for another hour (there was an undried thread in the middle). But all the same, an unusually tender and soft marshmallow turned out.

[Siliavochka,]

Expensive Siliavochka, happy Birthday! : rose: Continue to delight near and far with your delicious pastilles!
Girls, I'll give my dryer to my parents, let them play. I seem to have played enough. I am noisy, and I am a migraine with both auras and experience. Pastila dried on one pallet for 18 hours. Remained flexible. The middle around the hole is not dry. I missed it, dried it in the oven ... Not toooo, taut, slightly rubbery. Didn't take a photo of anything, TK sonny sweeps it away in any form in an instant. I started to dry it in gas, now I'm doing it in electric. It turns out an apple bread.
And dislike with the dryer ... Now she dries thin pastilles that need to be twisted ... But I suspiciously don't like something either .. Well, that's what the parents will dry in it ... I'll try more fruit pieces ...
Thank you all more for your advice and support!

I started to dry it in gas, now I'm doing it in electric. It turns out an apple bread.

Well, the main thing is that everything works out and you like it.
After buying my dryer, I never went back to the oven. All experiments with temperature and mass were already with a dryer.

[Silyavka]

Silyavka, Lenochka, happy birthday !!!

[Elvira]

for soft marshmallows, you need a thick puree.

Elvira, this time I did not weigh the mashed potatoes, I cooked from what was, the mashed potatoes were not very thick, on the contrary, it was wet, this time I did not dry until the crackers, I looked at the bottom side. It is completely dry, it spreads right after pressing, so delicate is just super. From 2 kg. The puree turned out to be a marshmallow weighing 855 grams, 4.5 cm high.

From 2 kg. the puree turned out to be a marshmallow weighing 855 grams

Excellent yield of finished marshmallow!

[Elvira]

Excellent yield of finished marshmallow!

Elvira, and you never weighed yours?

Excellent yield of finished marshmallow!

This is the standard pastille output. Plus or minus.If it is very delicate, it is light and weighs less; if it is denser, then it is slightly heavier ..

[Galina]

standard marshmallow output. Plus or minus

Galina, I weighed only two pastilles, but it really turns out to be almost the same weight, the strawberry one turned out to be only 10 grams less

I weighed only two pastilles, but it really turns out to be almost the same weight, the strawberry one turned out to be only 10 grams less

Well, I say, give or take. Well, it couldn't be otherwise. The same amount of puree, the same pallets, so that the candy is always of the same weight.

shocked today. remember the neighbor brought apples?
baked, rubbed, weighed, maybe. mashed potatoes turned out wet. began to beat, it does not beat, looked looked, added more protein, in any. cut in the maximum speed, dangled dangling, no matter how the volume could not be raised, poured it onto the pallet, a little remained at all, added the remaining mashed potatoes to this mass and took out the workpiece from the fall, this batch was beaten well and on one protein, it was enough for two trays at a stretch. there is nothing left for smearing

[Ljna]

Ljna, Zhen, and the apples are baked well?

[Silyavka]

Silyavka, yes, the skins remained only after rubbing about 1 tbsp

remember the neighbor brought apples?

What an insidious neighbor ..
The juice should be drained if there is a lot of it on the pallet during the baking process. Sometimes weighing may not help. Well, add pectin. Apples are different .. variety is different, possibly winter ..

Lena, I weighed once .. Mashed potatoes on 3 pallets took about 2.5 - 2.7 kg. The output of the finished marshmallow was about 900 grams (I don't remember exactly). Next time I will definitely weigh the finished marshmallow.

there was not much juice, I can't imagine how to drain it from the baking sheet. next time I will bake on the wire rack and put a tray underneath

ps the marshmallow has not yet cut the past

did not cut the past

I already have less than half of today's left (I treated my neighbor and my hubby kissed), but she hasn't cut the last one yet

ps the marshmallow has not yet cut the past

Yes, we haven’t seen any of you yet .. we only hear, frozen puree, rolled up puree .. And what is your proof?

I can't imagine how to drain from a baking sheet.

It depends on what is meant by "a little" .. If there is not much juice, then there is not much of it, a couple of spoons, well, a couple of ladles, and if there is a lot of it, then the apples just stand in it, practically float. You take the mittens, take out the baking sheet, hold the baking sheet with one hand, hold the apples on top with the other and gently pour the juice wherever you want into the sink, into the saucepan. I poured it out and again put the apples in the oven to bake.

we haven't seen any of you yet

here is your lie, showed

here is your lie, showed

Yeah, once .. And where else?

I will cut two 3s, I will show and the 4th is on the way, that's it, no more

Two

Where was I then? Well, stick it out, at least I'll admire ..

Well, I couldn’t cut it off soft, loose, dry, no moisture. I don't even want to take a photo

Yesterday I put it to dry.
The cake weighing just over 800 grams, which did not want to whip, shrunk to 230 grams, like the next two. I barely removed the paper from him. So he also bends

The rest were dry to a crust, the paper came off easily.
Smeared, height 7 cm turned out

soft, loose, dry, no moisture. I don't even want to take a photo

Duc is aerobatics! When you get soft cakes right away, not cardboard ones ..
Photos are waiting for the cut ..

[gawala]

gawala, nooo, this third that I can't cut

can't cut off

at all? and a cold knife? well, or is the same knife a file, or what does it not take?

nooo, this third that I can't cut

What, nooo .. No, no, but yes .. They say to you aerobatics, then aerobatics. Do not argue with older comrades in weapons pastille. You take a cold knife and cut it, just not a saw, but an ordinary thin knife. After finishing drying, tell us about your impressions. It cannot be tasteless. It will be like a good biscuit. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.

Galya, 4th is drying, and the third does not want to be cut. From the word at all. I'll go into the freezer and throw a knife

[Evgeniya]

Evgeniya, you are capricious lady !! ... The fluffy crust turned out to be completely dried. ... It is necessary to be equal to such a cake!

[elvin]

elvin, I'm not talking about the cake, I'm writing about the third marshmallow)))
