Hokey Pokey
WHAT YOU NEED:
- 2 tablespoons of golden syrup
- 5 tablespoons of white sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
WHAT TO DO:
Now it’s important to be extremely careful with hokey pokey,
because it’s super hot! So you’ll definitely need an oldie around to help you
out. So to make Hokey Pokey, this is what you’ve gotta do:
1. Combine sugar and golden syrup in a pot and stir over a
low heat until sugar is dissolved.
2. Turn up heat and bring to a boil. Remove from heat as
soon as mixture boils.
3. Add baking soda. Mixture will froth up at this stage (The
bicarbonate of soda breaks down with heat to release carbon dioxide gas. The
gas causes the toffee mixture to froth and the gas becomes trapped in the
sugar/syrup mixture)
4. Stir quickly to make sure it is all combined and then
turn out on to a greased tray. (USE OVEN MITTS)
