##Liquid Sugar: combine
- 4 cups white sugar
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
in a covered pot over low heat for at least 30 minutes; makes 4 cups
because 4 cups contains 4 cups of sugar it's a very good substitute for granulated sugar. Boiling it with the cream or tartar inverts some of the sucrose creating a sweeter combination of sugars less prone to crystallization. The higher sugar content also increases the shelf-life.
