Golden Syrup

A thick amber syrup made in sugar refining. Cane or beet sugar is partly inverted, so the syrup stays liquid instead of crystallising.

Origin

The familiar British syrup grew out of 19th-century sugar refining.

Flavour

Sweet, buttery, and lightly caramelised, with less bitterness than treacle.

How to use it

Spoon it into cakes, puddings, and glazes, or drizzle it on porridge.

Storage

The tin keeps at room temperature. Wipe the neck so the lid does not glue shut.
