What does a toasted marshmallow taste like? Depends what you toast it with. If you try to use a cigarette lighter it might taste of lighter fuel. Invariably if you try to grill them they end up burnt. Either way, why do you want to know?

I hate making pancakes. I always have the first two turn out wrong. Yesterday, I lost my temper and threw the bloody frying pan in the sink and when I washed it up later on I discovered a dent in it. That will show it. The first one always turns out wrong for me, no idea why. I just throw it away and the rest are always fine!

If it goes wrong the first time round it is invariably because your pan isn't hot enough.

No, unfortunately the frying pan knows when I'm trying to cook pancakes. Maybe that dent in its side will make it behave itself in future.

I've never had a toasted marshmallow and just wondered what they tasted like. When we had camp fires, we threw ROMAN CATHOLICS in them, we never thought of toasting marshmallows.

I should have added...or invariably because your pan is TOO hot! But don't take my advice...I could mess up a glass of water.

When we had camp fires, we threw batteries, aerosol cans and Peter Brindley in them, we never thought of toasting marshmallows. you really have to experience it - the taste is like hot marshmallow - but it's all about the consistency....the feel of it on your tongue......the slightly charred skin barely holding a mess of gooey pink mallow.....

I agree. Properly toasted marshmallow is nice, and not because of the flavour. If you want flavour, try cooking sausages over a proper flame (*slurp*)

Toasted marshmallow is the only way to eat it! Anything else is just sweet and odd.
Recipe for Smores:
Toast marshmallow.
Sandwich marshmallow between two chocolate digestive biscuits, chocolate side facing inwards of course.
Too much for me but kids love them.

When we had camp fires, we threw batteries, aerosol cans and Peter Brindley in them, we never thought of toasting marshmallows. My Mum In Law loves the sweet "Toasted Marshmallows". All the retro sweet shops we've been in don't have 'em, and a surf round the e-shops have drawn a blank. When we were in Boston t'other year we were wandering around CVS - their version of Boots - and they had huge bags of the things. So, they do exist. Just not here any more.

It certainly is and the curse of pancakes is passed down from mother to daughter. Many's the time I've watched my mother try to cook that first pancake, holding my breathe knowing that the first one would fail and somehow I'd be to blame.

SWL, that's a shocking confession to make on a multi-cultural board such as this one and you should be utterly ashamed of yourself. There's nothing big or clever about supporting Glasgow Rangers.

Oi - skullduggery is afoot. I never typed that we burnt Catholics. That's ridiculous. Everyone knows they're full of shit and don't burn well.

All three of mine worked out perfectly! It helps, I think, if your pan is new or nearly new, and I repleaced mine a couple of months ago.
