HOMEMADE CARAMEL CORN

2 1/2 qts popped corn
1 stick butter
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tsp salt
1/3 cup white corn syrup
1 tsp baking soda

In a medium, heavy saucepan, mix together the butter, brown sugar, salt, and corn syrup. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches the soft ball stage. (When a drop of the mixture is dropped into cold water, it will form a soft ball.) Remove mixture from the heat and add the baking soda; mix well. Have corn spread of a cookie sheet with sides. Pour the mixture evenly over the corn. Bake in a slow oven at 250 degrees for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
