Roasting marshmallows over a fire is an American tradition. Every hike and gathering around the fire is not complete without cooking a sweet treat over the fire. Fried marshmallows are covered with a golden brown crust, but the inside remains very soft and tasty. To toast marshmallows, you need a wooden stick. When preparing to go outdoors, stock up on wooden skewers so that you don’t have to cut improvised analogues from the branches of trees growing around. Marshmallows cook in less than 1 minute.
