How do you make hard marshmallows?

The problem is that when you make a marshmallow hard, it's not really a marshmallow any more - more of an aerated confection. You can make marshmallows harder by heating the sugar syrup (that is poured and beaten into the egg whites) to a hotter stage than suggested (at least 10 -20 degree's Celsius hotter, without caramelization occurring, if possible) . This will result in harder marshmallows, but I'm not entirely sure how hard they will turn out to be (or how hard you want to make them, for that matter).

The issue with making marshmallows hard is that the egg whites (that are the essence of the marshmallow) do not become "hard" when cooked by having sugar syrup poured over them. (They only become hard when combined with sugar and baked for a long time in a cool oven, such as when making meringue). You could try experimenting by drying out some of the final marshmallow's in a low temperature oven.
