Golden Syrup


Explanation:
If the source text refers to Golden Syrup with 'G' and 'S, not 'g' and 's', then it is a registered trademark (of Tate & Lyle) and should not be translated.

neutral  margaret caulfield: Many "golden syrups" are made by different brands. It's simply a "melaza de caña clara".

  -> There is only one 'Golden Syrup' - the stuff from T&L I poured on steamed pudding in the (long since past) days of my youth.
agree  Bárbara Oliver: Creo que tu respuesta es correcta porque el Golden Syrup se compra ya preparado y no es un almíbar casero.http://www.newzealand.cl/Cultura/ComidaTipica.htm

Almíbar
De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
Saltar a navegación, búsqueda

La fruta escarchada es un tipo de almíbar.El almíbar (del árabe al-maiba, un jarabe a base de membrillo) o sirope es una disolución sobresaturada de agua y azúcar, cocida hasta que comienza a espesar.

Características [editar]La consistencia, que va desde un líquido apenas viscoso a un caramelo duro y quebradizo, depende de la saturación de azúcar en el agua y del tiempo de cocción. El almíbar se emplea para conservas de frutas, para cubrir bizcochos y panqueques, para elaborar distintos tipos de caramelos y además forma la base de algunos postres, como el tocino de cielo, los sorbetes, los fondants y el merengue italiano.

Hay tres métodos para determinar la consistencia del azúcar:

la clásica, que consiste en someter la mezcla a pruebas mecánicas: si hace hebras o bolas, etc.;
la de densidad, utilizando un pesajarabes;
la de temperatura, utilizando un termómetro especial que tenga finamente graduada la zona de 100

Treacle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Treacle is the generic name for any syrup made during the refining of sugar cane[1] and is defined as "uncrystallized syrup produced in refining sugar".[2] Treacle is used chiefly in cooking as a form of sweetener or condiment.

The most common forms of Treacle are the pale syrup that is also known as golden syrup and the darker syrup that is usually referred to as dark treacle or black treacle. Dark treacle has a distinctively strong flavour, slightly bitter, and a richer colour than golden syrup, yet not as dark as molasses. Golden syrup is the main sweetener in the Treacle Tart.
