Golden Syrup (Substitute for Lyle's Golden Syrup) Put 1/4 cup sugar in a small heavy saucepan and shake pan so the sugar is in an even layer. Sprinkle it with 1/2 tsp vinegar and 1 tsp water. Cook over low heat, without stirring, for 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium and cook until syrup has taken on a light caramel colour, 5 to 6 minutes. Immediately remove from heat and pour in 1/3 cup light corn syrup. Do not stir, but let it bubble for 2 to 3 minutes. When the bubbling stops, stir well. It can be stored at room temperature for several months. BACK TO RECIPE INDEX BACK TO MY MAIN PAGE
