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.

Kobler is a hybrid of casserole and pie. Cover the juicy filling with a layer of dough. The filling can be both sweet (fruit and berry) and unsweetened (meat and vegetable). Today I have a problem with tender turkey stewed with vegetables in tomato sauce. Place small rolls of unleavened dough with herbs on top of the fragrant gravy. This dish is universal. It can be prepared in advance by folding it into an aluminum mold. Taking a picnic with you, you will only need to reheat the dish on the grill, grill or directly on the coals. The kobler can also be frozen and reheated if necessary. In nature, among relatives, you can relax using unleavened rolls instead of cutlery, dipping them in a thick, fragrant meat sauce and enjoying the taste.

What do I associate with early autumn? This is a warm sweater under a light raincoat, yellow leaves, favorite shoes and, of course, apples. In our band, they start collecting them from the end of August. A couple of apples in a work bag, in a schoolboy’s briefcase – this is for a long time. Charlottes though a stream of bake, but sometimes you want something more refined. I offer you a recipe for a delicate sponge cake with apples and butter cream. The idea of making a recipe is inspired by a chain of Swedish stores.
Autumn recipe from autumn gifts of nature. For more than a quarter of a century, I have been familiar with winter harvesting from quince, pumpkin and bell pepper. Very interesting to taste, spicy and flavorful. Now I decided to make a snack based on it without conservation, slightly changing the composition and cooking technology. It turned out quickly and tasty, with a slight sourness and sharpness. Try it for a change!
