There’s a native marshmallow plant(althea officinalis) that I grow in my gardens. Trying to get the roots out to make marshmallows is like trying to pull an octopus out of the ground.
It’s so worth it. The flowers are quite pretty too.
Hmm, I don’t get the reference. I guess I’ll just have to add it to the list of mysteries like where KFC originated, the main dish at waffle house and what post hole diggers are used for.
You can use pretty much any herbal tea in the place of the mallow root to make different flavors. I usually dust mine with coconut powder instead of arrowroot, too. Mallow powder can be found at most health food stores, but you can also forage your own Mallows or cheese weed to make your own if you know what to look for.
