Description

Brown rice syrup is prepared by combining cooked brown rice with dried sprouted barley. The mixture is then cultured with malt enzymes which convert 45% of the rice starch into maltose and 3% into glucose.

This syrup has a butterscotch flavour, is amber in hue, and resembles barley malt syrup in consistency and sweetness. It contains 30 to 50 percent complex carbohydrates, in addition to a sprinkling of minerals and B vitamins.

Brown rice syrup should be refrigerated to prevent the surface from molding. This sweetener may also be available in powder form.

Substitute 1 cup brown rice syrup for 1 cup sugar in baking recipes.


 

Ailments / Situations Where Used

Brown rice syrup is commonly used as an alternative to white sugar. It is a less processed, more natural sweetener.

Brown rice syrup may be appropriate for use by diabetics. Consult with your nutritionist, naturopath, or other health practitioner as to the appropriateness of this sweetener to meet your needs.
