Roasting Marshmallows to Perfection

PS Before following these instructions, have a fire made that has burned down enough for there to be hot coals. Also, have a sharp stick, on which the marshmallow is stuck.

I am expert at this activity because I have had a lot of experience with different kinds of marshmallow, marshmallows from Australia and from the US of A. I have also been camping on numerous occasions, and my mother is the best marshmallow roaster alive.

1

Take the marshmallow stick in your hand and lower over hot coals until three inches above coals.

2

Rotate the marshmallow stick slowly, allowing time for it to heat the marshmallow, but not light it on fire or burn it. Continue doing so until marshmallow turns a light colour of brown.

3

When the marshmallow turns brown, remove the stick from above the the fire, and remove the marshmallow from the stick. Place in your mouth when sufficiently cooled and ENJOY!!
