How do you dry peanut brittle?
I "saved" a batch of microwave peanut brittle that never got hard. I scraped it into a pan and melted it back down and boiled until the hard candy stage (by candy thermometer or dropping some in water - it should turn brittle and hard). When it was at the hard candy stage, I took it off the burner, stirred in some baking soda and spread it in the greased baking sheet to cool. It brittled up just right!
What does softball stage mean in cooking?
When you cook candies the instructions will often refer to the "soft ball" stage. The "soft ball" stage usually occurs at 235 degrees F. When this temperature is achieved, dip a spoon into the candy and drop some of the candy mixture in a cool/cold glass of water. If it has cooked long enough your candy will form into a ball that is slightly mushy, not hard, this is the "soft ball" stage. If the candy just falls apart in the water it has not yet achieved the "soft ball" stage.
Can a deep fryer thermometer be used as a candy thermometer?
Meat is generally cooked to under 200 degrees and candy's hard crack stage is 300-310 degrees, so the standard digital probe probably cannot handle the intense heat. And the probe wire might hit the burner. And the sugar may seal the probe beyond your ability to clean it.
