Orange Mallobet

I've decided to share with you all another recipe from the Grunow Refrigeration Recipe book. Unfortunately for me, the front cover has completely fallen off, but I am sure that the recipes still work! For today's recipe, I've decided to share with all how to make Orange Mallobet, 1930s style. Now, before I read this recipe, I wasn't quite sure what Mallobet was, so a google search was necessary. According to the Food Resource Glossary at Oregon State University, mallobet is "a frozen dessert, on the order of a sherbet containing marshmallows." Sounds interesting, doesn't it?

Orange Mallobet
Ingredients-
20 marshmallows
1 1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup egg whites
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons sugar
Orange coloring if desired

Directions-

This first part is a little bit confusing for me, so I'll type it out exactly as the recipe calls for. I hope that you understand it better than I do!

"Put the marshmallows over hot water with the water and 3/4 cup of the orange juice; add 2 tablespoons of sugar, and set aside until slightly jellied. Add remaining sugar to egg whites and whip stiff. Combine as directed above and freeze without stirring"
