Demerara Sugar

Demerara sugar, also known as turbinado, is a raw cane sugar often used in home baking and for sweetening beverages. Its crystals are coarse and brown, with a rich molasses flavor. Less processed than refined sugar, and with more nutrients, it is not made by adding molasses to processed sugar; rather, it comes straight from sugar cane juice. The juice is spun in a turbine, causing the water to evaporate and the sugar to crystallize into coarse demerara.
