A confection made from the root of this plant
the marshmallow plant provided a thick gummy sap, that 'gels' like a gelitan, marshmallow are basicly meregue (beaten egg whites) stiffened with gelitan. while they do have sugar as an ingredient, they are lower in sugar than many candies-(mostly because they are made up of mostly air!)most marshmallows today are not made from the plant but from commercial (meat by product) gelitan.
'noughat' is meregue that is stiffened by cooking it. the meregue is cooked by adding hot sypup to the meregue while beating it. noughat used to be made with honey (the nice italian ones still are!) honey is slightly acid, and because the acidity varies, so did the results.
depending on the temperture of the syrup, you can get soft noughat (milky way bars) or hard noughat..
