Molasses, Unsulphured

Molasses, Unsulphured
(Molasses, Unsulphured) The highest grade, pure molasses is made from 100% pure, natural sugarcane juices, clarified, reduced, and blended to get just the right color and consistency. But there's difference in grades of molasses. The purest molasses is pure cane juice. If a manufacturer wants sugar, the cane juice will be processed. For most of our recipes that call for molasses, we use unsulphured (unsulfured) molasses, because it sweetens with a rich pleasant flavor.  See the nutritional chart below.

Vegan FlagThe above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
