    List of Ingredients




    2 cups granulated sugar
    1 cup molasses
    1/2 cup cold water
    1 tablespoon white vinegar
    1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/8 teaspoon baking soda
    2 tablespoons butter

    Recipe



    Combine sugar, molasses, water and vinegar in heavy 3 quart saucepan.
    Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves and
    mixture comes to a boil. Add cream of tartar and cook to very hard ball
    stage (260∞ F). Remove from heat; stir in baking soda and butter.
    Pour
    into buttered shallow dish. When cool enough to handle, pull it with
    the
    hands, until it is porous and light colored - takes about 20 to 30
    minutes. Cut into 1 inch lengths and chill for a few minutes to harden.
    Wrap individual pieces in waxed paper, if desired.

    Yield: 10 dozen 1 inch pieces.
