    Is additional food coloring to be added a second time after it is boiled with the first 5 ingredients? If so, is this to make it the color you prefer? If not, is it to be added before or after the boiling of first 4 and not first 5 ingredients? Really confused.

      Kay when you remove it from the heat just add the soda, vanilla and how much food coloring you want at this time and you are good to go. You don’t even have to add the food coloring if it will be easier for you because it is just for fun and to make it any color you want. Jill

        I had the same question and I’m confused about the answer. It says to combine the first 5 ingredients, which includes coloring and then add coloring after removing from the heat. You say the food coloring is optional, is there a missing ingredient in the 4th position?

          Sorry it was my mistake. I fixed it on the recipe. Do the syrup, sugar, butter, and vinegar then add the food coloring at the end. Sorry for the mix up and thanks for the heads up.

        You can use apple cider vinegar but just be aware it might change the flavor slightly but should be ok.

      If it is cooked correctly it hardens like a hard candy.

    Thank you. I remember reading about “taffy pulling” in some American story when I was little. Now I understand!

    One of our favorite cold winter evening activities at Grandpa’s. As soon as is was cool enough, Grandpa would throw it up over the coat hooks at the door with his “buttered hands” and let fall again and again until it was pulled enough and then Grandma would cut it into pieces.
    Thanks for a fond memory from the 1950’s.
