By keeping your eyes and ears open you can learn something new in the food industry practically every day! The ever-popular Domino Company has produced an incredible sweetener made from the nectar of the succulent Agave plant. This plant is native to Mexico. Domino has grown an organic blue agave, which produces quality nectar. Just 2/3 cup of Light Agave Nectar equals 1 cup of granulated sugar, and all liquid ingredients would be reduced by 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup. Incredible! They have found something pretty progressive and controversial, too. They make a second variety called Amber Agave Nectar and 2/3 cup is the same as 1 cup of brown sugar, and liquids are reduced by 1/4 cup.

Domino’s Amber Agave Nectar.
I read that agave nectar is naturally sweet and has a low glycemic index and is a gluten-free product containing no allergens, plus it is Kosher Certified. Super! When heated the nectar becomes purified. The light brand offers sweetener without adding flavor and the amber brand adds a caramel flavoring, which is perfectly paired with pancakes, oatmeal and cereals. Domino has given cooks and bakers decades of quality products from the sugar cane and now … they are bringing us yet a newer way to make our kitchen experience even sweeter. Visit Domino to read and learn even more about agave, and to see their array of recommended recipes. Next time you shop be sure to pick up a bottle of this new product. Make something, snap a photograph and add your recipe here on your profile page. Let’s make our own decisions if we like this sweetener as much or more than Domino Granulated Sugar.
