I tried my hand at Candy Cane Syrup today, and it kind of makes me feel like a kitchen boss. This is kind of weird, since it's actually pretty easy to do.
 |
| Start with some broken candy canes |
 |
| Then make some simple syrup (2 parts sugar, 1 part water) |
 |
| Throw the candy in. |
 |
| Melt it. |
 |
| Boil it up. (about 3 minutes) |
 |
| BOOM. Syrup. |
 |
| I think it's pretty rad. |
See? Not too hard.
I'm feeling a little nervous, still, that it will harden too much to be usable... candy has a way of screwing me over at the last second (My mom could tell you some interesting stories about the time I tried to make Divinity). I'm still pretty happy with the results, though.
What are you cooking this Christmas?
