Corn Syrup Substitute

  This is a good standby when I'm out of corn syrup or I don't feel like paying the current price, even for the cheap stuff. Works just as the regular store bought but without the high fructose corn syrup in it. You have to love home made!

2 c. Sugar

3/4 c. Water

1/4 t. Cream of Tartar

Pinch of salt

  Combine in pan, bringing to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer. Cover for 3 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring often until beginning to form soft balls when water tested ( soft ball stage is 235-240 F). Cool and store at room temperature. Keeps 2 months.
