Palm Sugar
Unrefined sugar tapped from palm sap, with warm caramel notes.
Palm sugar is made by boiling down the sap of palm trees into a soft, fudgy or crystalline sugar with deep caramel and butterscotch notes. It sweetens and balances Southeast Asian curries, dressings, and sweets, and is sold in discs, blocks, or paste.
