HARD CANDY RECIPE – GINGER

 Ingredients:

¼ cup pure cane sugar

1 tablespoon light corn syrup

2 tablespoons warm water

⅛ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon ginger

1 or 2 dashes of nutmeg

Mix all ingredients together in a small pan…

Cooking time:

 About 20 minutes -

 Make sure to set your burner on medium-low, letting it come to a soft bubble, and then bring to a lower boil.

 Your mixture should be a light caramel color, kind of like light maple when it’s ready.

Preparing:

Lay down 1 sheet of aluminum foil and coat top with powdered sugar ( 1 tablespoon )

Without getting burnt, pour hot liquid onto powdered surface – let it set for about a minute or less.

Letting it be hot enough to cut and roll up, but cool enough not to scorch your fingers.

And wah-LAH! Your hard candy is now ready to serve…

Serves about 10 - 15 pieces of hard candy
