PEANUT BRITTLE

2 cups sugar
few grains salt
1 cup chopped or whole roasted peanuts

Melt sugar slowly in heavy pan, stirring constantly until thin syrup forms with no sugar left.  Remove from heat.  Add nuts and salt and stir until nuts are coated.  Pour into greased 9" pan.  When cold, break into pieces.  Makes about 1 pound.

This recipe is fine for peanut brittle.  As long as you mind the stove and keep stirring, it shouldn't burn.
