3 tablespoons water

Cooking instruction summary:

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat, parchment or wax paper. If using parchment or wax paper, lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.Combine the butter, sugar, corn syrup, water and salt in the medium saucepan and attach a candy thermometer. Place the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is dark amber and reaches 300ºF (the hard crack stage), 20-25 minutes. As soon as the mixture reaches 300º, remove the pan from the heat and remove the thermometer. Stir in the hazelnuts and pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use the spatula to spread it out to an even thickness (about ¼-inch). Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about an hour. Break up the toffee into large chunks and store in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep a couple weeks, but you won't need it to last that long. Trust me.

Food Joke

Why I Fired My Secretary I woke up early, feeling depressed because it was my birthday, and I thought, "I'm another year older," but decided to make the best of it. So I showered and shaved, knowing when I went down to breakfast my wife would greet me with a big kiss and say, "Happy birthday, dear." All smiles, I went in to breakfast, and there sat my wife, reading her newspaper, as usual. She didn't say one word. So I got myself a cup of coffee, made some toast and thought to myself, "Oh well, she forgot. The kids will be down in a few minutes, smiling and happy, and they will sing 'Happy Birthday' and have a nice gift for me." There I sat, enjoying my coffee, and I waited. Finally, the kids came running into the kitchen, yelling, "Give me a slice of toast! I'm late! Where is my coat? I'm going to miss the bus!" Feeling more depressed than ever, I left for the office. When I walked into the office, my secretary greeted me with a great big smile and a cheerful "Happy birthday, boss." She then asked if she could get me some coffee. Her remembering my birthday made me feel a whole lot better. Later in the morning, my secretary knocked on my office door and said, "Since it's your birthday, why don't we have lunch together?" Thinking it would make me feel better, I said, "That's a good idea." So we locked up the office, and since it was my birthday, I said, "Why don't we drive out of town and have lunch in the country instead of going to the usual place?" So we drove out of town and went to a little out-of-the-way inn and had a couple of martinis and a nice lunch. We started driving back to town, when my secretary said, "Why don't we go to my place, and I will fix you another martini." It sounded like a good idea, since we didn't have much to do in the office. So we went to her apartment, and she fixed us some martinis. After a while, she said, "If you will excuse me, I think I will slip into something more comfortable," and she left the room. In a few minutes, she opened her bedroom door and came out carrying a big birthday cake. Following her were my wife and all my kids. And there I sat with nothing on but my socks.
