The recipe is a very old recipe - my books have it at least from the 1950's .. I don't think that anyone can claim it as "theirs" ..
The recipe is based on the same principles as traditional confectioners use to make Turkish delight or Lokum ie the gelatinization of amylose in cornstarch..
Basically, boiled inverted sugar syrup mixed with cornstarch slurry that is heated until just thickening - removed to be stirred until smooth. Check the thickness, and do again if necessary. [not too often or you will get a gelled mass] High heat is questionable, as my instructions say low flame [heat - old recipe]
