Epigraphs

Sometimes I worry that I’m not the hero everyone thinks I am.

The philosophers assure me that this is the time, that the signs have been met. But I still wonder if they have the wrong man. So many people depend on me. They say I will hold the future of the entire world on my arms.

What would they think if they knew that their champion - the Hero of Ages, their savior - doubted himself? Perhaps they wouldn’t be shocked at all. In a way, this is what worries me most. Maybe, in their hearts, they wonder - just as I do.

Uncle White’s world renowned recipe for blue sugar glass

This recipe is adapted from a recipe by Elizabeth Labau posted on Sugar Hero.

Ingredients & Equipment

  • Corn Syrup
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Clear Flavoring Extract
  • Blue Gel Food Coloring
  • Candy Thermometer

Instructions

  1. Combine water, light corn syrup, and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Stir until the sugar is moistened and dissolves.
  3. Brush down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush – this will remove any stray sugar crystals. Sugar crystals in the pan can cause your whole batch to crystallize.
  4. Once it comes to a boil, insert a candy thermometer. From this point on, do not stir the candy.
  5. Cook the candy until it reaches 143 C on the thermometer. It should be a light yellowish color.
  6. Immediately remove the pan from the heat. Let it sit for a minute, until the rapid bubbling stops, then add flavoring extract and blue gel food coloring.
  7. Stir well until the color is evenly distributed.
  8. Pour the hot candy out onto a baking sheet covered with foil. You can spread it into a thinner layer with the spatula if you’d like.
  9. Let the candy cool completely at room temperature, until it is set and hard.
  10. Use a knife or kitchen mallet to smash it up into smaller pieces.
  11. Remember, this candy is easiest to "eat" in small pieces.
  12. Distribute this in small plastic bags to your "friends".
