Light Corn Syrup Substitute recipe

2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Dash of salt

Combine all ingredients in a heavy, large pan. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and put cover on it for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan. Uncover and cook until it reaches soft ball stage. Stir often.

Cool syrup and store in a covered container at room temperature. It will keep for about 2 months.

Makes almost 2 cups.
