Apricot Marshmallow
Description
Apricot pastila is prepared as follows: 1. Remove the pits from apricots and place the fruit into a saucepan or pot. 2. Pour in water until apricots are completely covered, then place on heat. 3. Cook apricots until soft, about 25 minutes. 4. Drain the water and blend the apricots into a puree using a blender. 5. Add sugar to the apricot puree and cook for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. 6. The puree should become thick, like honey. 7. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and pour the hot puree onto it. 8. Spread the puree evenly to a thickness of about 1 cm. 9. Cool to room temperature. Carefully flip it over and remove the parchment paper. 10. Store apricot pastila in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. However, we never stored it for long. It never had time to set properly before being rolled into long rolls and disappearing from the plate. Good luck and ;)
