Yellowman

Name: Yellowman
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups corn syrup; 1 cup brown sugar; 1 tablespoon butter (heaping); 2 tablespoons vinegar; 1 tablespoon baking soda

5 ingredients

3 steps

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups corn syrup
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter (heaping)
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoon baking soda

Directions

1

In a large saucepan slowly melt together all the ingredients except the baking soda. Do not stir. Boil until a drop hardens in cold water (240°F on a sugar thermometer). Stir in the baking soda. The toffee will immediately foam up as the vinegar releases the gas from the baking soda.
2

Pour out onto a greased slab and while just cool enough to handle fold the edges towards the centre and pull repeatedly until the whole is a pale yellow colour.
3

Allow to cool and harden in a greased tin and break into chunks with a hammer.
