RE: Turbinado Sugar

[Guest guest]

I will just use the turbinado until I locate the Mascavo sugar. I have quite a

few resources where I am, but not much time to go and shop. Grrrrrrr! I don't

even know if this recipe is " all that " and I don't use sugar often, so I am not

too worried at the moment. I use to fill our sugar bowl weekly, now I only use

it for company, when the oldsters come over. And even now my Mom and Dad are

avoiding sugar! I just picked up some stevia in packets to have on hand. I

also gave two packets to Dad for him and Mom to try. It has to be better than

Splenda!

 

I was told by my nutritionist that I just started seeing to stop drinking

coffee, so I don't really need sugar. She told me to replace it with a cup or 2

of green tea. I do not like sweet tea, so that is so wonderful for me because

the coffee was prompting me to use sweeteners.

 

She told me to give my children more protien. she suggested that I use 3/4 cup

of Spelt (because I love Spelt) and 1/4 cup of Soy flour in recipies. (making a

ration of 3:1 Spelt:Soy is what I am trying to spit out) she said that it would

add protien to what we eat.

 

Just a little tid bit I figured I would share with you.

 

thanks for your help Tint!

Lorraine, I have no idea what's available where you are, but here, I'd use

Mascavo sugar. I guess as long as it says something along the line of raw

sugar on the packaging.

the day saying, " I will try again tomorrow "

Tint,

 

I just picked up a recipe for cookies that call for this Turbinado. i did

not find any at the health food store. What would you use as a replacement?
