2 pounds sugar.
1 pound glucose.
⅔ pint water.
Put all this on hot fire, stir till it commences to boil, wipe down
sides of kettle with a damp cloth, cover and steam, put in thermometer
and cook to 260. Then pour on greased slab, with bars around the edge
to keep it from running off, and just as soon as it commences to cool
or stiffen up a little, lift up the edges and fold toward center, and
continue doing this until it is cool enough to handle, then pull on the
hook until it is snow white. If you wish it vanilla, flavor by pouring
the vanilla over it while on the hook, a little at a time, until you
have it highly flavored. It is much easier to pull taffy on a hook and
also improves it greatly. We have told you about the hook in the item
regarding “tools.”
