In culinary and household terms, sugar is called sucrose – an ordinary food sweetener that is obtained by processing sugar cane or sugar beet.
The white color of sugar is achieved during refining, but at the same time its individual crystals remain colorless. Many varieties of sugar contain different amounts of vegetable juice – molasses, which gives the crystals different shades of white color.
Sugar is an indispensable ingredient in many drinks, dishes, confectionery and bakery products. It is a familiar additive to coffee, cocoa and tea; confectionery creams, ice cream, icing and sweets cannot do without it. As a good preservative, white sugar is used in cooking jam, making jelly and other products from fruits and berries. Today, white sugar can be found almost everywhere, even where it is not expected to be found. For example, it may end up in low-fat diet yogurt or sausages, as well as in the manufacture of canned meat.
White sugar on sale is in the form of granulated sugar and refined sugar in pieces. Granulated sugar is packed in bags of different capacity, usually from one to fifty kilograms. Dense polyethylene bags are used, inside of which a film is additionally stretched to protect the contents from moisture and the spillage of crystals. Refined products are packed in cardboard boxes. The high hygroscopicity of white sugar causes certain requirements for its storage. The room where the product is located must be dry, protected from temperature fluctuations. Storing it at high humidity will lead to the formation of lumps. Sugar has the ability to absorb foreign odors, so you should not keep it near products with strong flavors.
White sugar is very high in calories – almost 400 kcal per one hundred grams of the product, and its composition consists entirely of carbohydrates. Therefore, when dieting, it is recommended to limit the use of this product in its pure form (for sweetening coffee or tea) and in the form of various sugar-containing drinks, cakes, cookies, etc.
Easter Week is not just about inviting guests to the table. I propose to diversify the festive table with very original and delicious baskets. It’s nice to be at a tea party! Come in..
The cake is good for every day, but it also looks great on the festive table! Soft, airy dough. The original coconut filling with sour apricot has made great friends with the poppy filling. Try! I’m buying!
I want to share, dear friends, I am the one who loves wallets! For breakfast, on the road, you can take a snack for the holiday and serve it to the table. The recipe at home will be simple! Treat your loved ones a la sausage!
I suggest another baking recipe with coconut filling. Cherries can be replaced with dried cranberries or candied fruits. Sweet vanilla roll is perfect for both a festive table and everyday.
What a curd casserole according to this recipe turns out delicious, soft and tender. I cook a cottage cheese casserole without flour, I add semolina instead. I love these recipes – everything is mixed and ready! Dessert turns out delicious and at the same time very useful! It’s impossible to break away.
I like this recipe with a minimum number of ingredients and ease of preparation. And those who do not like (or for some reason cannot) too spicy food, you can make the salad less spicy, for this it is enough to reduce the amount of garlic and pepper.
A fragrant cake with a rich composition can be presented on Easter Week. The husband said: “This mega orange is a real cupcake!” Coconut lovers will also be satisfied.
Zucchini in Afghan or Borani Kadu. A very tasty appetizer dish. It is served either as an independent dish with rice on a side dish, or as an appetizer -meze. Spicy and spicy, like all oriental dishes. Try it, you won’t regret..)))
