Spice profile

The tasting note.

Large amber crystals with real molasses still in them. Used sparingly in a savoury blend, the sugar is not for sweetness but for colour and crust — it caramelises on a grill and gives a rub its lacquered finish.

Keep it under a tenth of a rub or it will burn before the meat is done.
