Homemade Light Corn Syrup
This DIY corn syrup substitute is made without corn starch. It's basically a sugar syrup that you can use in recipes in place of corn syrup.
servings: 2 cups
ingredients
2 cups white sugar
3/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 dash salt
directions
Combine all ingredients in a heavy, large pan. Stir and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to a simmer and put cover on it for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan.
Uncover and cook until it reaches soft ball stage (235 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Stir often.
Cool syrup and store in a covered container at room temperature. It will keep for about 2 months.
