Sugarcane or sugar cane is a species of tall, perennial grass (in the genus Saccharum, tribe Andropogoneae) that is used for sugar production. The plants are 2–6 m (6–20 ft) tall with stout, jointed, fibrous stalks that are rich in sucrose , [ 1 ] which accumulates in the stalk internodes .
To produce molasses, sugar cane is harvested and stripped of leaves. Its juice is then extracted, usually by cutting, crushing or mashing. The juice is boiled to produce a concentrate and encourage sugar crystallization. The result of this first boiling is called first syrup ('A' Molasses) and has the highest sugar
Molasses – a thick, sweet syrup made from boiling sugar cane. Orgeat syrup – a sweet syrup made from almonds, sugar, and rose water or orange flower water; Oleo saccharum – A syrup made from the oil of citrus peels. Palm syrup – an edible sweet syrup produced from the sap of a number of palms, it is produced in the Canary Islands and ...
Sugarcane juice Machine used to crush sugar cane to obtain the juice. Sugarcane juice is the liquid extracted from pressed sugarcane.It is consumed as a beverage in many places, especially where sugarcane is commercially grown, such as Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, North Africa, mainly Egypt, and also in South America, especially Brazil.
Simple syrup (also known as sugar syrup, or bar syrup) is a basic sugar-and-water syrup. It is used by bartenders as a sweetener to make cocktails, and as a yeast feeding agent in ethanol fermentation. The ratio of sugar to water is 1:1 by volume for normal simple syrup, but can get up to 2:1 for rich simple syrup. [6]
The result is a dark, "caramel–flavored, burnt gold–colored syrup," "deep and slightly sulfurous" with a "lightly bitter backlash." [1] [2] It is sweeter than molasses because no refined sugar is removed from the product. [3] Steen's syrup has been made since 1910 in Abbeville, Louisiana, by C. S. Steen's Syrup Mill
Panela (Spanish pronunciation:) or rapadura (Portuguese pronunciation: [ʁapaˈduɾɐ]) is an unrefined whole cane sugar, typical of Latin America.It is a solid form of sucrose derived from the boiling and evaporation of sugarcane juice.
Muscovado is made from the juice of sugar cane that is evaporated until crystallisation occurs. The viscous suspension of crystals and mother liquor (molasses) is called massecuite. In the 19th century several techniques were used for sugar production. [16] [17] [18] [2] [1] [19] Muscovado is today produced by three main methods: [20] [21]
