Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 1 3/4 cups glaze, enough for 1 <a href="/recipes/food/views/15417">Pecan Harvest Loaf.</a>

Ingredients

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups sugar

Preparation

  1. Combine the lemon juice and sugar in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring, for 10 to 15 minutes, until transparent. Test to see if the syrup forms a "string" when dropped from a spoon. When it does, take it off the heat and spoon it over the slightly cooled pecan harvest loaf.
