Recipe
for family meals :
 It
is many years since Hub-UK was first launched. It has
been created from recipes contributed form all over
the world, from professionals and amateurs alike. A
great many of the recipes do not have any details as
to who sent them in or from where they came. It would
be a shame not to share them with you for this reason
alone.
This
recipe is one such recipe. If you know where it originated,
or perhaps it is even yours, let me know and I will
add the necessary credits and acknowledgements.
"The
most indispensable ingredient of all good home cooking
- love, for those you are cooking for" ~ Sophia
Loren.
Ingredients
2
cups molasses
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup water
1/8 teaspoon soda
4 tablespoons butter
½ teaspoon vanilla
Method
- Cook
the molasses, sugar and water slowly to the hard-ball
stage (127°C), stirring during the latter part
of the cooking to prevent its burning.
- Remove
from the heat and add the butter, soda and vanilla
and stir enough to mix.
- Pour
into a greased pan and, when cool enough to handle,
pull it until it becomes light in colour.
- Stretch
it into a long rope and cut with scissors into small
pieces.
