Kokuto, Okinawan Brown Sugar Blocks, 270g
Okinawa Kokuto Sugar Blocks
Kokuto, originating from Okinawa Prefecture, is a traditional brown sugar made by boiling down pure sugarcane juice without refining, resulting in a rich, complex flavour with notes of molasses and caramel. This natural processing method preserves minerals such as calcium, potassium, and iron, contributing to its distinctive dark colour and robust taste.
How to Use
Kokuto sugar blocks can be grated or dissolved to sweeten beverages like tea and coffee, enhancing them with a deep, nuanced sweetness. In cooking, they add depth to sauces, marinades, and baked goods. Traditionally, kokuto is enjoyed as a confectionery on its own, offering a satisfying, rich flavour.
