Yes! Here's a recipe I found on city-data.com:
SALT WATER TAFFY
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 tablespoon glycerine
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Put brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and water into a saucepan or iron kettle. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 256°F, or until it forms a hard ball when tested in cold water.
Add salt and glycerine. Pour onto a greased marble slab and when cool enough to handle (be careful - hot sugar burns!) pull until light in color.
Add vanilla while pulling. Pull out in round sticks the size of kisses. Lightly oil a scissors with vegetable oil or spray. Cut pieces 3/4 inch in length. Roll up in waxed paper and twist ends.
Have Fun!Yes, you can make taffy without corn syrup by using alternative sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar. Keep in mind that the texture and flavor may vary slightly compared to traditional taffy recipes that use corn syrup.
originally, it was colored white. willy wonka was playing with his white sticky stuff, and it just happened
Glycerin is used in making taffy to help prevent the candy from becoming too hard or sticky. It helps to retain moisture, keeping the taffy soft and chewy for a longer period of time.
Sugar cane is a type of plant that is grown and then harvested into sugar. Sugar cane is a sub-tropical crop of tall plants with very thick stems. The stems are harvested and they are crushed in order to extract the sweet juice. The juice is purified and the water content is boiled off. Eventually the process reaches a stage when sugar crystals grow. The results are a brown raw sugar that resembles the sweet brown sugar used to make baked goods.
White sugar (granulated sugar) is usually used in cooking (unless the recipe says to use cane sugar) and cane sugar, I'm going to call it brown sugar, is a little bit better for you. Brown sugar is more natural which means they didn't dry and dye it. I personally like brown sugar better that white sugar because you can taste that there has been no chemicals put into it and its yummy to put on my wheat-biscuit cereal. ;-) I'll go a little more scientific on you: Brown sugar has more moisture in it because usually they add some pure molasses to it. And sticks together a little bit because the sugar crystals are smaller than white sugar. White sugar is pure sucrose. They also dye it white. And it goes through many processing machine to get it that way. So, heres the real, big, difference: One cup of brown sugar has slightly more calories than white sugar, but 1 cup of brown sugar has "187 milligrams of calcium, 56 of phosphorous, 1.8 of iron, 757 of potassium, and 97 of sodium compared to the only scant traces of those nutrients found in granulated sugar." So there you have it. Hope I helped!
they use sugar
Yes, just make sure that you use the total measurement of sugar for both white and brown. Both white and brown sugars can be used interchangeably with each other without affecting the sweetness of the cookie. However, each sugar does effect the texture. More brown sugar will make a moister, chewier cookie.
Yes, you can make brown sugar by mixing regular granulated sugar with molasses. For light brown sugar, combine about one tablespoon of molasses with one cup of white sugar; for dark brown sugar, use two tablespoons of molasses. Mix thoroughly until the sugar is evenly colored and has a moist texture. This homemade brown sugar can be used in recipes just like store-bought varieties.
Either is fine but i suggest brown sugar because of the consistency.
Yes, you can use brown sugar to make custard. It will add a slight molasses flavor and a deeper color to the custard compared to using white sugar. Just be mindful that brown sugar can affect the texture slightly, so ensure it is fully dissolved for a smooth consistency. Overall, it can be a delicious variation!
Yes you can. For a cup of light brown sugar you can use dark brown sugar and granulated sugar. You should use 1/2 cup dark brown and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. This will equal 1 cup light brown sugar.
1 tea spoon of sugar per 4 person serving ( I prefer to use brown sugar or palm sugar to sweeten dishes)
You could substitute splenda or another sweetener.
Cane sugar has a more refined flavor than brown sugar and can be used as sweetener in most cases. Someone would use it because they do not need the texture or complex flavor of brown sugar.
Yes, you can use pancake syrup as a substitute for molasses when making brown sugar with white sugar. However, pancake syrup is much sweeter and less viscous than molasses, so the flavor and texture of the resulting brown sugar may differ. To approximate brown sugar, mix one cup of white sugar with a few tablespoons of pancake syrup, adjusting to taste. Keep in mind that the final product may not have the same rich flavor profile as traditional brown sugar made with molasses.
Yes, you can use regular sugar as a substitute for brown sugar in most recipes, but keep in mind that the flavor and texture may be slightly different.
Brown sugar can be substituted with white sugar with molasses added for the desired color.
