{Brown Rice Syrup Glycemic Index 25}

For quite a while now I am also using Brown Rice Syrup with a Glycemic Index of 25, compared to refined sugar that has a GI of 80. That does make quite a difference for the body.
This is my go to ingredient whenever I make ORANGE MASHED SWEET POTATOES
click the link above for recipe!
We can buy it at Whole Foods Market but I never buy the organic, which is also one dollar more expensive.
Since it is rather sticky, I pour it directly from this jar instead of using also a measuring cup; just by eye...
Brown Rice Syrup
Above you even find more uses for this very healthy sweetener.
You just have to learn how to substitute it and you're fine.
Have you been cooking with Brown Rice Syrup?

  3. Good Afternoon Mariette, I have never heard of brown rice syrup.... I wonder if I can buy it at my local health food store.... I will have to investigate. I have been using Agave syrup which I have been adding to yoghurt instead of honey.
    I am going into town tomorrow, so I will see if it is available as it looks like an interesting new ingredient.
    Enjoy your day,.
    Best Wishes

  4. Hello, Mariette,
    Looks interesting. It is first time for me to hear of brown rice syrup! I wonder if it can be added to vegetable juice I make every morning. Occasionally my juice needs something sweet to make it more delicious!
    Have a happy day!

  5. Actually have never heard of brown rice syrup nor seen it sold around here thought we are getting a lot more healthier options in the grocery stores. Of course, very, very expensive. I just bought a bag of quinoa flour and it was over $15.

  11. Dear Mariette,

    Just read your comment on my blog. You must feel more American than Dutch. 32 years is such a long time! It must have been lovely to celebrate in NY. I have never been there myself, but hope to see it one day.

    Have a lovely weekend ahead!

  16. I wonder how this would work in baked goods. I can imagine it in the gingerbread that I like to make in the fall. Or in pumpkins muffins. I'll have to try it. Thanks for the tip, Mariette.
