Boil the potatoes in salted water until not quite tender, about 15 minutes. Prepare the sauce by melting the sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. In a short time the sugar will begin to turn to a light golden brown. Stir to prevent burning. When light brown syrup is formed, immediately add the corn syrup, followed by the water. Blend thoroughly. Allow to cool for just a moment and then stir in the pecans, butter, salt, and vanilla. If you wind up with a small sugar lump or two, do not worry about it. Simply remove the offending lump. Place the potatoes in a greased baking dish. Pour some of the sauce over the potatoes and bake at 375? for about 20 minutes. This sauce is very rich and I expect that you will want to save some of it for ice cream tomorrow. From
