Sugarcane is a plentiful crop in South Louisiana. So most everyone grew up eating cane syrup. One of the more familiar marketers of this syrup is the Steen’s Syrup company.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Steen's Cane Syrup
- 1/3 tbsp butter or margarine
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 quarts popped popcorn
- Salted peanuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Pop the popcorn according to package directions. Combine with the peanuts if you are choose to add them.
Step 2
In a heavy duty pan over a low fire, combine the syrup and salt and boil to the hard boil stage (when a small amount dropped in a cup of water becomes brittle).
Step 3
Remove from the heat and add the butter. Coat the popcorn and shape into balls about the size of a hardball or softball. Careful when you first pour the syrup, it is hot (C'est chaud)!
