Soak the gelatine in cold water.
Put the water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Using a thermometer, the temperature should reach 260°F/130°C (or boil for about 5 minutes).
Start beating your egg white.
When the syrup has reached the right temperature, drizzle it over the egg white while continuing to beat at low speed. After pouring in the syrup, add the wrung-out gelatine.
While continuing to beat, add the grenadine and a little food coloring. Continue beating until the mixture is lukewarm.
Mix the cornflour with the powdered sugar. Sprinkle this mixture onto a silicone baking tray or dish.
Using a piping bag, pipe the marshmallow into large balls. If you don't have one, pour the marshmallow directly into a dish covered with the cornstarch-icing sugar mixture. Then sprinkle the marshmallow with the cornstarch-icing sugar mixture, and chill for 3 hours.
After this time, peel off the marshmallow strands and cut into pieces.
Your marshmallows are ready! Store them in an airtight tin.
