This is ideal for home cooks. It’s fairly simple but with a little bit of flair to it.
Honeycomb
Ingredients
80g Golden syrup
220g Caster sugar
20ml Water
2 Teaspoons bicarbonate of soda.
Instructions – Join us ‘Live’ on 14th Feb 1:00pm
Firstly line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
Then heat the golden syrup, sugar and water gradually in a pan to 155C. Heat the mixture slowly and take care not to burn the sugar, a good thermometer is a real help with this.
Now whisk in the bicarbonate of soda quickly into the pan and as the sugar begins to foam up pour it out into the lined baking tray.
Allow the honeycomb to cool.
Once cool you can then break the honeycomb into pieces and store in an airtight container.
