Saltwater Taffy Recipe
2 C. sugar
1 C. light corn syrup
2 T. butter or margarine
1/4 t. oil of peppermint (or other flavoring)
7 drops of food coloring (optional coloring to match flavoring)
1 C. water
1 1/2 t. salt
Butter the sides of a 2-quart saucepan and add sugar, corn syrup, 1-cup water
and 1 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Continue
cooking to 275� F, without stirring. The mixture should boil gently.
Remove from heat and stir in butter or margarine. Add flavoring and food
coloring. Pour into a buttered cake pan and cool about 30 minutes, until you can
handle it easily. Butter hands and pull candy until it becomes difficult to
pull.
Cut into four pieces and pull each piece into a long strand about 1/2 inch
thick. With buttered scissors, snip bite-sized pieces and wrap with candy
wrapping.
Recipe makes about 1 1/2 pounds of candy.
