Put the sugars, water
and corn syrup into a pot, set the pot over
medium heat and stir.
When the batch has boiled for the first
time, wash the sugar
crystals down from the sides of the pot. Put
the thermometer in
the pot and cook without stirring to 290F
[soft crack stage].
Take the pot from the heat and add the food
coloring and the anise
flavoring and stir them in gently.
With a teaspoon, drop
round patties about the size of quarters
onto a greased baking
sheet. If the candy in the pot gets too
firm for spooning,
reheat it gently until it softens.
Cool the drops completely
but not in the refrigerator or the pieces
will stick. Wrap the
drops individually in wax paper.
