In the lush hills of China, there is a tradition which has been passed down through generations – the art of boiling fresh sugarcane to make rock and brown sugar. This process not only preserves the sweetness of the sugarcane, but also creates a versatile ingredient that can last for the entire year.
To start this journey of creating your own homemade rock and brown sugar, you will need just a few simple ingredients – fresh sugarcane, water, and patience. At my aunt’s place, half the hillside is covered in lush sugarcane plants, ready to be harvested and transformed into delicious sugar.
Begin by cutting the sugarcane into manageable pieces and boiling them in water. As the sugarcane simmers away, its natural sweetness infuses the water, creating a rich and flavorful liquid. This liquid is then strained and boiled down further until it thickens and forms crystals, which will eventually become rock sugar.
For brown sugar, simply continue cooking the liquid until it caramelizes and turns a deep amber color. The result is a deliciously rich and complex sugar that adds depth to any dish.
As you embark on this culinary adventure, remember to take your time and enjoy the process. Making your own rock and brown sugar is not only a rewarding experience, but also a way to connect with the traditions of the past. So gather your ingredients, roll up your sleeves, and get ready to create a pantry staple that will last you all year long. Happy cooking!
