Sugarcane - the origin of sugar!

Fresh sugarcane can be used to make juice by passing through a manual or electric press. More simply, one can remove the outer layer with a sharp knife and chew the remaining internal part of the cane to extract the sweet delicious juice.

The canes are not only used for their juice. but also in culinary preparations. They can be divided into thin sections and used as a natural skewer to impart a natural flavour onto the meat, fish and vegetables added to the skewer.

Some bartenders split the cane into thin narrow pieces and add them to cocktails to be used as a stirrer.

 

Also known as

Sugar cane.

 

Origin

Uganda.


Preparation

Wash the outer layer well first before removing with a sharp knife - taking care to not cut your fingers!

To extract the juice either chew directly on the internal part of the sugar cane or pass through a manual / electric press. When chewing on the cane directly it's preferable to cut into smaller bite-size pieces.

The pure sugar cane juice is sometimes mixed with water and more commonly, various types of fresh citrus juice to balance the sweetness.
