    Title: Salt Water Taffy
    Categories: Candy
    Yield: 1 Pound

    1 c Sugar
    2 tb Corn starch
    3/4 c Light corn syrup
    1/2 c Water
    1/2 ts Salt
    2 tb Margarine
    2 ts Vanilla

    Grease 9x9x2" cake pan. Mix sugar and corn starch in 1-1/2 qt
    saucepan. Stir in corn syrup, water and salt. Add margarine. Cook
    over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and sugar
    is completely dissolved. Continue cooking, without stirring, until
    temperature reaches 260 F, or until a small amount of mixture
    dropped into very cold water, forms a ball which is hard enough to
    hold its shape, yet plastic. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Pour
    into prepared pan. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Pull with
    fingers until it has satin-like finish and light color. Pull into
    long strips, 1/2" wide. Cut 1" pieces with scissors. Wrap in waxed
    paper.
