Peanut Brittle

Mix water, sugar, syrup and salt in a saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved.

Bring to a boil; boil for 3 minutes. Continue cooking until syrup takes on a rich caramel color at 320°.

Have peanuts spread out on a 12 x 12 x 19-inch buttered shallow enamel ware pan, a marble slab or an enamel kitchen top. When candy gets to 320° stir in butter and soda.

Stir well and quickly pour out on peanuts.

Let cool and break.
