Today my student and I were practicing Power Off stalls and as we reached the stall; the engine began vibrating and shaking and then our engine quit. Right away I pitched for the best glide speed and began executing the emergency procedures checklist to get the engine restarted and picked an emergency landing area. I dialed in 7700 on the transponder and radioed mayday. After turning on the fuel pump I cranked the engine over and it started right up. We headed back to the airport for a landing.
