Ingredients
1 lb 2 oz golden granulated sugar
10 fl oz water
4 tablespoons vinegar
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
Method
Butter 11 x 7 inch tin.
Put the granulated sugar, water and vinegar into a deep saucepan and heat (gently) until the sugar is dissolved, stirring continuously. When the sugar has dissolved, bring the mixture to boiling point and boil gently (stirring) until a little of the mixture dropped into a cup of cold water becomes hard and brittle. Remove the pan from the heat while testing for setting point.
When ready, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the bicarbonate of soda, immediately pour into the buttered tin and when cooled mark into small bite size pieces with a sharp knife. Leave to go cold, turn out of tray and break into pieces. Store in a tin lined with greaseproof
