Mrs. M. Yerkes.
Put any amount of sugar desired in a saucepan; stir over fire until sugar dissolves and turns brown. Now add hot water equal in quantity to the sugar; this hardens the sugar, but let the mixture simmer about 15 minutes and the sugar dissolve again and a clear syrup is formed. If the syrup be desired thick for flavoring a mousse or seasoning sauces, it may be allowed to simmer 1/2 an hour or more. Be careful that the hot mixture does not spatter on hands when water is added. Mrs. C. J. Chandler.
