Substitute for Corn Syrup

RE: Substitute for Corn Syrup By iburumahtangga (1) Contact I have found a recipe to make bubbles that, instead of using glycerin, uses corn syrup. However, we cannot get corn syrup here locally. Do you know if the recipe for a substitute that is given here will work for bubbles?

Corn syrup can affect your health - I developed an allergy to corn because corn syrup and corn starch are in an amazing amount of stuff and the over exposure raised my intollerance level. I had migranes for almost three months solid before I even knew what was causing them. Read the lables to realize how many products are contain this product and how high it is on the ingredient list!

To answer a question that seems to be big on a lot of people's minds - here is a simple substitute for corn syrup in recipes: Use one quarter (1/4) teaspoon of cream of tartar for each two cups of sugar. The cream of tartar will change some of the sugar into glucose, which prevents crystallization of the sugar as it cools. This is why corn syrup and the like is used. Cream of tartar obtains the same results without the addition of more sugars. The chemical name for cream of tartar is potassium hydrogen tartrate, (if you can't find it in the grocery store, try looking in the pharmacist's or the apothecary.) and is usually obtained as a by-product of wine production.

It is terrible for the body and in my opinion it causes the adrenal gland to 'blow out'......the only substitute I agree with is the Agave syrup....which at least is a more natural form of a concentrated sweetner.....America just needs to make a break from Sugar/artificial sweetners.

It's a simple sugar sauce just like they make in Egypt for Basbousa.

Another substitute would be Agave nectar though it's not cheap it is much better than corn syrup and can be bought over the internet. A lot of time corn syrup is called for is because aside from sweetening it makes candies, icings... shine.

If you care about your health, corn syrup is terrible and anything with sugar in it is no better substitute. Honey is a good substitute. I use 1 part honey and 1 part distilled water in sauce pot simmered. Brown rice syrup is good if you have other flavors that go along with what you are making.

It's what I used in England, and it may very well be available in Australia. It IS corn syrup Posted on 11/17/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Substitute for Corn Syrup By Kiki (Guest Post) Try this...I googled it and found this recipe on several sites! CORN SYRUP SUBSTITUTE 2 c. white sugar 3/4 c. water 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar Dash of salt Combine all ingredients in a heavy, large pan. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and put cover on it for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan. Uncover and cook until it reaches soft ball stage. Stir often. Cool syrup and store in a covered container at room temperature. It will keep for about 2 months. Makes almost 2 cups.

Corn syrup is light in color and only slightly sweet. Most things like honey, molasses, affect both color and taste, as well as consistency. Corn syrup is widely not available outside of the US, as it is almost never sold in a pure form, but rather has bits and bobs of everything in it - so is not accepted by many countries food testing boards. In Germany (for example) people recommend either rice syrup or glucose syrup - so binding, slightly sweet and mostly otherwise flavor and color neutral.

Posted on 07/30/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Substitute for Corn Syrup By louel53 (Guest Post) Corn syrup doesn't have much flavor, really. It is just a sweet taste. If you substitute honey, or molasses, you will have those flavors. I use Roger's Golden Cane syrup in any recipe requiring corn syrup. One could also use some sort of pancake syrup. A pancake syrup is usually a little more liquid than corn syrup. Corn syrup isn't really anything exotic. It is just a liquid sweetener; use whatever sort of syrup that you have in AU.

Meaning that it won't spike your sugar and then drop it right back down like corn syrup will. Posted on 07/29/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Substitute for Corn Syrup By Katie A. (202) Blog!

My grandma was from the UK and always told us those and corn syrup would work interchangeably in her recipes.
