Turbinado
sugar is a healthier alternative to refined sugar. While both sweeteners
are made from sugar cane, turbinado sugar does not undergo the same degree
of processing that refined sugar does.
It retains some of the
natural molasses and so is tan in color. Liquids are spun out of the
sugar thus the name "turbinado".
Unlike refined sugar,
turbinado sugar retain more of the nutrients found in sugar cane.
It can replace refined sugar one to one in any
recipe.
