Ingredients
- 1 cup unpopped popcorn
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup dark corn syrup
- ½ cup water
- ½ tablespoon distilled white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
Directions
Step 1
Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to a 4 quart saucepan, and heat over high heat. When oil is hot, add 1/2 cup of popping corn. Keep pan moving constantly. When corn stops popping, remove from heat. Repeat until all corn has been popped. Place popped corn into a buttered bowl.
Step 2
In a 3 quart saucepan, combine sugar, salt, butter, dark corn syrup, and water. Stir until sugar dissolves. Stir in vinegar. Boil sugar mixture to hard ball stage, 248 degrees F (118 degrees C). Remove caramel from heat. Stir in soda. Beat to thoroughly dissolve the soda.
