Recipes with Rice Molasses

Molasses is obtained by fermentation of grains, in this case, rice. Fermentation of food improves its digestibility and nutritional value, as among other things, it helps transform food as complex sugars, proteins and fats into simple sugars, amino acids and free fatty acids, respectively.

The rice molasses provides more vitamins and fiber than any simple carbohydrate, and therefore it helps the functioning of the digestive system and reduces the risk of developing intestinal disorders; produces antibodies and is a good source of energy. Besides, it contains a minimal amount of fat, and provides small percentages of iron, folic acid, thiamin, niacin, vitamin E, calcium, potassium, phosphorus.

Suggestions for the use

The rice molasses is a sweetener, so I suggest you consume with fresh fruit for better use. It is suggested you consume any kind of molasses preferably in the morning to sweeten cereals, juices, shakes, teas or other drinks. It is ideal for use on toast, hot cakes, biscuits, yogurt or bread.

Remember that…

Consumption of refined sugar (either in breads, candies, cereals, canned tomatoes, etc.) creates imbalance of minerals in the body, which creates hot blood (and therefore it is prone to infectious germs incubation) causing allergies, obstruction, malnutrition, disorders in calcium metabolism, and weakening the pancreas. It generates emotional dysfunction and may also blacken the teeth, among many other things that go against your health.
