Sugar Nut Candy
- 3 pounds white sugar
- 1/2 pint water
- 1/2 pint vinegar
- 1/4 pound butter
- 1 pound hickory nut kernels
Cook the sugar, water, butter and vinegar together into a thick suacepan. When it begins to thicken, add the nuts. To test it, take up a very small quantity as quickly as possible directly from the center, being careful not to disturb the mixture any more than is necessary. Drop it into cold water and remove from the fire the moment the little particles are brittle. Pour into buttered plates. Use any nuts with this recipe.
