Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 3 handfuls of cane sugar
  • 2 tbsp vinegar
  • ¼ liter of water

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Malt – candy, the recipe comes from a handwritten private cookbook from Vienna Fr. Albine Fischer 1916

Bring 3 handfuls of raw sugar to a boil with 2 tablespoons of vinegar and about 1/4 liter of water. Boil for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until a thickened mixture forms. Test: If you dip a wooden spoon into the boiling mixture and then add it to cold water, it immediately hardens. Remove the pot from the heat. Pour the contents into a prepared bowl or saucepan greased with fat or oil. Place the bowl in the cold water. Cut the mixture into small pieces using a knife dipped in oil. Only then can the sugar pieces be broken up when completely cooled. (If the sugar pieces are too soft, boil the mixture again.) Storage: In a tin can.
