As y'all know, I am a "sugar" whore, literally and figuratively. I love to kiss, and I love sweet foods.
Since coming home to the Southeast, I am back on sorghum, a wholesome sweetener that is less pricy and pretentious than agave nectar. Sorghum has a wild, strong taste that appeals to my hillbilly palate. It resembles corn standing in the field, and also is a source of gluten-free, whole-grain flour the world over. (The Chinese distill sorghum into intoxicating drink).
Sorghum. It does a body good.
Also, NOT molasses. Please don't interchange the terms.
"Molasses is a by-product of the sugar industry, whereas sorghum is the
syrup produced when the extracted juice from the sorghum is boiled down."
