About Azucar morena
Azúcar morena, or brown sugar, is a sweetener commonly used in both traditional and modern cuisine worldwide, though it’s particularly associated with Latin American and Caribbean recipes. It is made by refining sugarcane or sugar beet juice and leaving some molasses intact, which gives it its characteristic golden-brown color and slightly moist texture. Rich in flavor, brown sugar offers subtle hints of caramel and can enhance baked goods, marinades, and beverages. While it’s minimally processed compared to white sugar, it contains trace amounts of minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron from the molasses. However, it is still a concentrated source of sugar and should be consumed in moderation. Overconsumption may contribute to spikes in blood sugar levels and other health risks associated with added sugars. Azúcar morena serves as a flavorful alternative to refined sugar, but its nutritional differences are relatively minimal overall.
