Walnut Taffy

Ingredients

• 5 pounds brown sugar
• 5 pounds crystal sugar
• 2 1/2 pounds glucose
• 3 pounds walnuts
• 2 quarts water
• lemon flavoring

Instructions

Shell the walnuts, peel off the skin chop very fine. Boil the glucose, sugar and water as before directed to the degree of weak crack, 300. Lift the pan a little from the fire; add the prepared nuts by letting them run through the finger gently; let the whole boil through, then add a few drops of the oil of lemon; when thoroughly mixed in, pour out the boil and mark into bars before too cold. The flavor is improved by roasting the walnuts a little before putting in the boil.
