palm sugar syrup
Palm sugar syrup is a natural sweetener made from the sap of various palm trees, such as the coconut palm or date palm. The sap is collected, boiled down, and concentrated to create a thick syrup that has a rich, caramel-like flavor. It is often used in desserts, beverages, and savory dishes.
This syrup is popular in many Asian cuisines, particularly in Southeast Asia, where it is valued for its unique taste and lower glycemic index compared to refined sugars. Additionally, palm sugar syrup contains trace minerals and antioxidants, making it a more nutritious alternative to conventional sweeteners.
