Hoarhound Candy Recipe

Put a tablespoonful of dried hoarhound leaves in a cup and pour over

them half a cupful of boiling water, cover and let it steep until cold,

strain and pour it over a pound of granulated sugar and a tablespoonful

of vinegar. Boil without stirring, and if any scum rises to the top

remove it. Test the candy in cold water, when brittle remove from the

fire and pour into a buttered pan. Mark into squares before it is cold,

or break into irregular pieces.
