INSTRUCTIONS
Pumpernickel Color (single batch)

3 TBS sugar
1 TBS water
1/4 cup boiling water
pinch of cream of tartar

Melt the sugar with the 1 Tbs of water, over low heat, in a small, heavy saucepan. Increase the heat to medium-high, cover the pan, bring to a boil, and boil for 2 minutes. Add the cream of tartar and continue to boil, uncovered, until the sugar is almost black in color. Remove the pan from the heat, the sugar will continue to cook and darken. Allow it to begin to cool. Using extreme care, add the boiling water(the sugar will boil up and may spatter). Stir to dissolve, then let come to room temperature.

I keep the syrup in a covered jar, at room temp, keeps forever.
