The secret to toffee
« on: 19 November, 2010, 10:02:57 am »
I've tried making this many times. Sometimes it's turned out crunchy and brittle, sometimes like fudge. Sometimes chewy.

What's the secret?  I'm testing the mix by dropping into cold water and checking the result.

Probably a decent thermometer.

Yes.  And most jam thermometers are not up to the job.  Temperature is really critical.  Nicknack's right - invest in a decent one.
