      Yeah seriously, isn’t that how you’re supposed to roast a marshmallow? Dip it in the flame and then blow it out once it’s cooked to your liking. I don’t understand why the bird is upset. It’s not a proper roasted marshmallow if it doesn’t catch on fire.

    You can argue about slow-toasted or torched.

    but true s’more aficionados know, you start with slow-toast to get the center nice and gooey, and then you torch it.

    When I was a kid we’d roast marshmallows over the stove coils. It just occurred to me that’s probably an odd thing for a family to do.

    IMO You want to let the fire burn down to coals or at least smaller flames. It slows the rate of heating a bit so you can catch it before it lights, and it means you don’t have the flames moving and changing how close your mellow is to the heat source.
