How to Make Sugar from Beets




Many years ago sugar was a priceless commodity. And only as distant as WWII sugar was rationed and prized as a bartering tool.
Kings and Queens have throughout history given and received sugar as tribute and as royal wedding gifts.

You can make this prized sweet from sugar beets very easily. Make sure you are growing or purchasing Sugar Beets. Scrub the beet well and chop it up into small pieces.
In a large pan, cover the beet pieces with water and bring to a boil.
Cook the beets til they are tender and the juice is extracted. Drain out the juice and reserve it.
Boil down the juice to about 1/3 it's original volume. Let cool and scrape out the crystals. Boil the juice again, til it is all gone, remove the crystalized juice again.
Your sugar will not be pure white and it may have a slight beety flavor, but it will be far superior nutritionally to refined sugar.
Store our sugar in a jar with a tight fitting lid. Use it just as you would refined sugar.


growing sugar beets in your design can bring some sweetness into your life... especially if your allergic to bees and dont wish to design a couple of bee nests into your design for honey production...
