Homemade Sugar Syrup (replacement for corn syrup/high fructose corn syrup)

This is an easy replacement for high fructose corn syrup that some recipes call for… It’s really easy and it lasts for about 2 months…

• 2 cups white sugar
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/4 teaspoon cream of tarter
• 1 pinch salt

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
3. Reduce heat to a simmer and put cover for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan.
4. Uncover and simmer, stirring often, until it reaches the soft ball stage.
5. Cool and store in a covered container at room temperature.
6. Your syrup should keep for about 2 months.
7. Makes about 2 cups.
