S'more S'mores

S'more, a photo by rachlyf on Flickr.

This summer I had my first taste of S'more, which was introduced to us by Amanda. S'mores, if you've not of it before, is a campfire treat that people have in America and Canada. Basically it looks like a sandwich catered for anyone with a sweet tooth.

So to prepare it, first of all we need a fire. Don't worry, there were no bonfires. We had a mini disposable BBQ grill, which we lighted up properly.

Then we had to collect sticks, which would be whittled so that a marshmallow can be placed at one end. Under the flame we must roast the marshmallows, until it becomes slightly brownish or burn like a torch.

The marshmallow, all melted and gooey on the inside, and some pieces of chocolate, go in between two crackers like what you see in the photo. It tastes delicious!

Amanda also said that another campfire 'tradition' is to be interrupted by a nutter. Which did happen, curiously enough. But let's not go there.

Anyway, here's a bit of America for you. Want s'more/some more?
