Just thought I would give a handy tip when making syrup. I have just purchased a diffuser that spreads the heat when cooking. They are quite cheap from e***y. What it means is that the sugar does not get stuck or burnt on the bottom. My maslin pan has never had it so good, and I can leave the syrup for a couple of minutes now before stirring, which previously was not an option!
 
Ummmm.


Maybe I'm the odd one out here, but I don't mix syrup on the stove.
I add hot water to the sugar, stir, leave a few minutes, stir again, and leave to cool.
Works fine for my (smallish) quantities.


All that said, 'flame tamers' definitely do have their uses.
Just not needed for making syrup.

:iagree: No need for anything more.
 
Actually if you can pump it it mixes in cold water. A single tub washing machine if you can find one is a massive asset.
