Candy Corn Old Fashioned Food
OLD FASHIONED MOLASSES "CARAMEL" CORN
Back in the day, down South, cooks didn't have corn syrup on their shelves, they had sorghum molasses as it was cheaply and locally produced. It's an old fashioned taste I love and candy made w/ molasses is far more flavorful than candy made w/ corn syrup. My Granny cooked her candy till 'hard crack' on the stovetop and poured it over the corn, but doing it that way takes a lot more babysitting and using this method you won't burn or undercook it because it hardens in the oven.

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 250 deg.
- Place butter in a medium pot, on medium heat.
- While the butter's melting, pop the corn and put it in a large roasting pan. I used a disposable aluminum pan and a hot air popper (you won't need to butter the pan).
- Keep an eye on the butter and add the sugar, molasses, and salt to it as soon as its melted.
- Bring the candy to a boil and stir and cook it only till the sugar melts and the butter blends in entirely - just a couple minutes.
- Turn off the heat and stir the vanilla and peanuts into the candy.
- Quickly add the baking soda and stir untill it's well mixed. It foams to make a lighter, more delicate candy.
- Pour the candy over the popcorn and toss untill it's evenly coated.
- Put the popcorn in the oven for 1 hour, tossing every 15 or 20 minutes.
- Let it cool completely before breaking up and putting into an airtight container.
- I developed this recipe by hacking others because I couldn't find another to suit me. I made this for Christmas treats and it was INHALED, you'll find it tastes like Cracker Jack; that candy is made with molasses, not corn syrup, I got a box yersterday to compare.
- You can easily double this, but double the baking time too.

OLD FASHIONED CARAMEL POPCORN
This is so yummy, an old family recipe. I use it at christmas as gifts. I place it in old but decorated coffee tins and give it to teachers and bus drivers as gifts, not to mention my Mom, brother and Grandma who wait for it. My kids love this stuff and it makes a great Friday night movie treat it you want to try something different. You can add nuts, but I never do!!

Steps:
- In a saucepan mix butter brown sugar, corn syrup and vanilla and bring to a boil.
- Boil for 5 to 6 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the baking soda until the mixture has puffed up.
- Allow 1 minute to rest.
- Placed popped popcorn in a large baking dish.
- (I use my very large turkey roasting pan without the lid.) Pour mixture over popcorn and stir until well coated.
- Bake at 300 degrees for 10 minutes.
- Stir well to make sure the bottom doesn't burn, Bake for another 10 minutes.
- Pour onto a large surface to cool.
- (I cut a green garbage bag in half and cover my dining room table with it before pouring out the popcorn onto it. It saves on clean up.) Break apart to serve.

- Chicken Pot Pie. Is there anything more satisfying than a warm dish of chicken pot pie? This dish is the ultimate comfort food—you'd never even know it was packed with nutritious veggies.
- Meatloaf. Meatloaf graced plenty of dinner tables back in the day, but it's fallen out of favor as of late. There's no reason you can't bring it back, though!
- Deviled Eggs. You don't have to be southern to enjoy deviled eggs with your at-home brunch. There are so many ways to level up this dish, too—have you ever had deviled eggs with blue cheese or sriracha?
- Baked Ziti. A restaurant classic, baked ziti is pretty simple to make at home, too. Putting your pasta in the oven will give it an extra-special touch, and who isn't looking to spice things up a bit after a year of quarantine?
- Blueberry Peach Cobbler. Why have cobblers fallen to the wayside? This dessert is so delicious, it's deserving of a comeback. Even if you can't have an outdoor picnic right now, you can still serve this tasty dessert at home.
- Pistachio and Cranberry Cheese Ball. Cheese balls might bring family holidays to mind, and that's not a bad thing! Go ahead and remember the simpler days with this easy recipe.
- Roast Pork Loin. Once billed as "the other white meat," pork has fallen to the wayside when compared with chicken and beef. But there are plenty of delicious ways to incorporate it into your recipe rotation.
- Chicken and Dumplings. A southern classic, chicken and dumplings is one meal that's sure to remind you of simpler days at home. Whether or not you grew up eating this dish, it's a standby comfort food for a reason.
- Mac and Cheese. Sure, you can still head to the store and buy a box of mac and cheese today . . . but there's something nice about making it the old-fashioned way with butter and flour and shredded cheese.
- Pesto Chicken. If you haven't made pesto in a while, now's a great time to start. The basil-based sauce is delicious atop pasta, but it also makes a great topper for juicy chicken breasts.

- In a bowl, combine powdered sugar and dry milk. In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, corn syrup, and water. Heat until sugar has melted. Add coconut oil and cook to 230°F without stirring mixture, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add vanilla and dry ingredients; stir until fully combined. Allow to cool for 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
- Spray a smooth surface and your hands with cooking spray. Separate the dough into three equal portions. Flatten one piece of dough and add a few drops of yellow food coloring. Fold the dough over the coloring and continue kneading until color is evenly distributed. Do the same with the second disk but add a little red food coloring in addition to the yellow, and knead until the orange color is evenly distributed. Roll each piece of dough out to a 53 inch cylinder, adding more cooking spray as needed. Lay the yellow colored rope down, place the orange rope above the yellow rope, and lay the white rope above the orange rope. Press the ropes together until they’re connected.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Using a bench scraper, cut a 4-inch section of the tricolored rope. Stretch the section of rope out until it’s about doubled in length, and press the rope down so it’s slightly flattened with the three equal stripes of yellow, orange, and white parallel to each other. Use the bench scraper to cut 1/2-inch segments, and cut each segment in half diagonally. Transfer candy corn triangles to prepared baking sheet. If some of the triangles are misshapen, use your fingers to press each triangle into the proper shape. Repeat with remaining rope of candy, working with 4-inch sections at a time. Leave candies to sit out uncovered for 24 to 48 hours, until the outside has slightly hardened.
