MOLASSES
Molasses, a product of sugar cane, is a part of the American tradition and has graced American tables since the days of the first colonists. It played a very important role in the building up of the early commerce of Colonial New England where it was and still is considered an everyday food. In this part of the country, the molasses jug is as commonplace as the salt and pepper shaker.
The wise buyer who wants the best of all molasses for every purpose will study the many grades of molasses now on the market. These grades range all the way from top-quality products with a smooth, rich, mellow flavor, down to blackstrap, a low quality with a bitter “black” flavor.
The finest molasses is produced in the British West Indies where the production of molasses is a major industry and is closely supervised by the government.
