Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, stir together ½ cup water and the gelatin powder. Let sit for 10 minutes to bloom.
- In a small pot fitted with a candy thermometer, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and remaining ½ cup water. Cook over medium-high heat, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 240°F (115°C), 15-20 minutes.
- Turn the mixer speed to medium-low and slowly drizzle the sugar syrup into the bloomed gelatin. Increase the mixer speed to high and whip until the mixture is opaque white and doubled in volume, 8-10 minutes. Add the salt and vanilla and beat for 2 minutes more.
- Divide the marshmallow mixture evenly between 3 medium bowls. Add the red food coloring to one bowl, yellow food coloring to another, and blue to the last and stir until each bowl is evenly colored.
- In a small bowl using a fork or whisk, stir together the cornstarch and powdered sugar.
- Use a pastry brush to evenly grease a nonstick 8-inch square pan with the vegetable oil. Use a small sieve to dust the pan with some of the cornstarch and powdered sugar mixture. Tilt the pan to coat evenly, then tap out any excess.
- Using ice cream scoops, alternate scooping each color marshmallow into the prepared pan, working quickly so the marshmallow does not begin to set. Swirl the colors together using a skewer or knife. Dust the top with more of the powdered sugar mixture.
- Let the marshmallows at room temperature, uncovered, for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
- Run a butter knife or fish spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the marshmallow, then invert onto a cutting board. Cut into 9 equal squares. Dust the cut marshmallows all over with more of the powdered sugar mixture to prevent sticking. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month, or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Make the s'mores: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Place the marshmallows between chocolate or honey graham crackers with a piece of milk or white chocolate. Toast in the oven for 1-2 minutes, until the marshmallows are just softened and the chocolate is beginning to melt.
- Enjoy!
