Handed down from my Dad and Aunt Paula. At Christmas time the Theisen family always has large amounts of homemade sweets, carmel corn, crystalized corn,fudge along with Christmas cookies and kringles.
You will need several baking pans for this. You are going to want to have the popcorn spread out not more than an inch deep and you are going to need to be able to stir it. Have the popped corn in the sheets before you start the next step. This is an old family recipe, they were not totally exact on the amount of popcorn!
Combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt.
Heat to a boil, boil for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in baking soda.
Pour over the popped corn , stirring to get it evenly coated.
Bake 250 degrees (120C) for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Let cool.
