List of Ingredients




2 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup water


Recipe



Punch holes at the top of a thin 8 inch square pan and lace about 7 strings
from one side to the other side. Place the laced pan in a pan deep enough to
catch any leaking syrup. Dissolve sugar in water and cook without stirring
to about hard ball stage (247°F - 252° F).
Pour syrup into laced pan. It should reach a level about 3/4 inches above
the strings. Cover the surface with a piece of foil. Watch and wait. The
syrup sometimes takes a week to crystallize. Lift out the laced pan. Cut the
strings and dislodge the rock candy. Rinse quickly in cold water put on
racks in a very low oven to dry.
