About this dish
Melted marshmallow, not a boiled sugar syrup, holds the small crisp rice pieces together.

The marshmallow comes off the heat as soon as the white lumps disappear. The mix is pressed into the tin only enough to fill the gaps; packing it down squeezes out the air between grains and makes a hard bar.
