HOMEMADE HOREHOUND CANDY
This recipe is from fresh horehound leaves. My mom grew up with this (my grandpa would buy it all the time) and she hated it. We had horehound bush growing in the herb garden, and we wanted to try it. We found this recipe and tried it. It was not too bad. My DH seemed to like it, even though my mom hated it. So try it and see if you like it or not. NOTE: Horehound candy was also used as a medicinal remedy for coughs way back several years ago.

HOREHOUND CANDY A COUGH CURE THAT WORKS! OLD SCHOOL!
This is a similar recipe to the one my grandpa used to make and give us kids when we were sick with a cold/cough. We loved it. We loved anything he gave us! :) The recipe belongs was shared by Jim Collums on Kathie's Herb Page. Molasses works well with horehound. He says this is incredibly great! So I am going to make some! I love molasses and it really worked for us kids!

Steps:
- Black strap molasses is recommended.
- Let 1 cup horehound tea steep for about 3 minutes, or to taste. ( Made into tea with 1 cup boiling water). Do this with a regular coffee pot.
- In a saucepan with the sides buttered, add 1 cup horehound tea, 2 cups of sugar and 3 tablespoons butter + molasses.
- Bring to a boil with medium heat and continue to boil until temperature on a candy thermometer reaches 260-270 degrees. (This is really important because if it goes higher than this, the rolling and twisting becomes unmanageable. Gets hard to fast.).
- Pour into a buttered pan and let set until cool enough to handle.
- Pull candy with buttered hands, twisting into ropes 4-5 inches long. Snip into pieces with kitchen shears.
- When cut, place all the pieces in a plastic container with sugar and shake for coating.
- NOTES: to prevent unnecessary crystalization, never stir the pot or scrape the pan.
