HOW TO MAKE SUGAR
Instructions
- 1Buy sugar cane from a retailer, such as Fresh Sugar Cane in California. Most vendors perform a preliminary wash before putting the cane out to sell, but you want it to be free from clinging dirt before you cook it.
- 2Wash the sugar cane for several minutes with running water. Press the sugar cane repeatedly with large rollers.
- 3Boil and cook the resulting liquid and allow the water to evaporate. Get rid of the dirty foam that accumulates on the top of the syrup.
- 4Discard the fibrous product left over and pour the resulting syrup into a large pan to cook further. Continue boiling until crystals occur. The result is raw sugar that is brown in color.
- 5Dry the sugar in a dryer that uses hot air. After it is dry, blow cool air over it for several days.
