Marshmallows, the beloved treat typically relegated to s'mores and rocky road ice cream, and sometimes found in fluff form or used as shot glasses, have begun to get some cooking play beyond just sweets. Recently, Japan has been using the melted down product as an alternative to sugar (even though we thought marshmallows were made of sugar?) in many desserts, and now they've branched out to savory recipes too.
This week, Rocket News 24 released a recipe for omelets fluffed up with the ingredient in question, and the combination looks nothing if not interesting. The article greatly emphasizes the importance of slowly stirring the two ingredients together, and after two failed attempts, they successfully arrive at what looks like a pretty decent breakfast, despite our original skepticism, and the fact that this sounds like something a broke college student or Amy Schumer would think up.
