Homemade Apple Marshmallow
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. A delicious and healthy treat—apple marmalade—can easily be made at home. We'll prepare it without any gelling agents, relying solely on the pectin found in apple peels. The recipe is very simple, though not particularly quick. But how pleasant it is to enjoy this marmalade with a cup of hot tea during winter! Children love it too—it's a great alternative to candies. The finished dessert can now be served.
