After a somewhat hilarious debate over the virtues of the Crunchie Bar v's the Violet Crumble......I have decided to make some honeycomb today.....using the recipe in mum's family recipe book ( I love this old recipe book, it is stained from years of sitting saucepan side in the throes of many a beloved creation)
The recipe is simple and aside from the risk of 3rd degree burns when it bubbles up with the bicarb is also fun to make.
4 tablespoons golden syrup
1 tablespoon water
1 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
Bring golden syrup, sugar and water to boil, should be almost at toffee stage, then take off heat, add bicarb and stir it in and watch it foam up like a volcano......I secretly love this part.....mwa ha ha ha must be the inner child in me.....
Pour it into a greased tray ( I use baking paper also) let set then break into chunks (this part is also fun lol)
Yummmmmooooo
Might keep the troops quiet for a while, here's hoping ;)
