Coconut Sugar / Palm Sugar - Gula Jawa / Gula Palem

Share |

written at Tue, 9 March 2010

Coconut Sugar / Palm sugar was originally made from the sugary sap of the Palmyra palm. The taste of pure coconut palm sugar resembles that of brown cane sugar, yet with more rounded caramel & butterscotch notes without the metallic ending flavor that brown cane sugar has. It is a wonderfully rich flavor. For cooking purposes, it has a very low melt temperature and an extremely high burn temperature. This makes it a wonderful sweetener for confectioners
The sugar is a golden brown granule or paste, sold in tubes or blocks. In Indonesia, sugar made from the Borassus (Palmyra palm) is known as Gula Jawa (Javanese sugar) or gula merah (red sugar). Palm sugar is often used to sweeten savory food to balance out the salty flavor of fish.
