@@HamiltonHomestead There is a difference between black strap and fancy molasses however. Fancy is extracted earlier in the boiling process and is sweeter and black strap is extracted in the final stage and is thicker, darker and more concentrated. The taste is stronger and more bitter. Not sure if that makes a difference to the plant. Do you know?
@@AlmostOffGridGrandmacre-zs5eu I did no need to buy brown sugar now also, next time I’m at the grocery store I’m going to look at the ingredients in their brown sugar and I can bet there’s lots of other stuff besides molasses. This is probably a much healthier way to go.
@@exploringmybackyard I will do the same and take a pic of the ingredients because no doubt I will have to look some of them up to see what they are, lol. Probably some sort of preserving agents 🤓For sure I would need my readers, lol.
Last time I made cookies, I added the granulated sugar, to the eggs & butter, and then added the molasses & mixed… and it worked just fine. A small shortcut.
Hello and welcome 🙂It's just that simple and many people don't know which is why I'm sharing. I'm glad you found it useful. Homemade brown sugar tastes so much better than store bought 👍Thanks for your support.
Krista, never worry that someone else has already made a particular subject/video because while yes there are many many videos on just about every topic there is, your particular viewers or subscribers may not have seen those other videos. Your subscribers are there to watch and learn from You, something they may not already know and they watch YOU to support you. I too have made a video on homemade brown sugar as well as powdered sugar (last year, I think) but our methods are different, neither being wrong. I personally only like light brown made ahead, which keeps well sealed up for a long time on the shelf. I only make dark brown on a per need basis. I eyeball drops, a little at a time until it's the color I want and I use a fork to blend it in, easy enough. I haven't bought brown sugar or powdered sugar in years. Great demo.😊
Prices of everything is going out of this world , I have a little of the gallon of molasses left that I purchased last year. I don't think we copy cat , we make ot for our subscribers no matter what we do it's likely someone already did it LOL Great job and nice to see the difference the amount make. Hope you have an awesome weekend
Thanks Garry 🙂Right and that is why I did it anyway because my family and others that watch here may not have seen those other videos and I was right by the looks of the comments. Have an awesome weekend as well my friend.
❤❤ That is just awesome.What surprised me the most is when you said your daughters did not have a mixer it must be by choice.. That was very interesting.Thank you so much.I think I knew how to do that.I have never done it.I've made powdered sugar by just whirling my. Regular sugar a few times .. This is awesome.Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you Joyce ❤My daughters never got into baking so much and I never had a mixer myself until after they moved on after college, so they didn't grow up with one. I did have a handheld mixer but that would be to fast for mixing molasses in sugar, lol. My KitchenAid does a nice job but not everyone has those. Have a blessed weekend 💕
❤ You have never had a kitchenaid.I've only had a hand mixer.I'm sure they would be handy but i've never really thought I would buy one always other things I thought I'd like..
@@Mrs.Peachthriftyliving I've had 2 separate surgeries on my wrists for carpal tunnel syndrome so that was my main reason for getting one that was on sale. Plus I use it for mixing dough to make bread. I love my little hand held mixer though. Thanks for sharing ❤
Hi Krista. Even though I've know how to make brown sugar, I've never done it. So thanks for the tutorial and I'll try it ext time I need some. I imagine the cookies would taste a little different to when made with homemade brown sugar. Yumm!
Molasses is still affordable at least at Costco but other stores have gone crazy with pricing. Brown sugar prices are getting ridiculous. Have a fantastic weekend 💕and I hope your ribs are feeling better sistah 🙏
Thanks for your observation and you are correct. I will not be changing the camera, as this is the best set up for me at this time using what I have. Enjoy your evening 🙂
That was interesting Krista, never thought about making your own brown sugar. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a blessed week and a Happy New Year my friend.
@ Yes ma’am we always like to find ways to save some money with the cost of everything nowadays. Hope you are doing well and you too have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Shellia 🙂Thanks for sharing this information because I didn't know that. It's still in my cupboard, so it will end up in cookies or a ginger cake 🎂😋I love ginger 🥰
True. I used the last of a bottle of molasses for a pumpkin pie I made last week. It was over a decade old. If I remember correctly, it was 17 years old. I don't use very much molasses.😂
Molasses is so good for you. AND, it’s good for plants!
That makes sense because it came from a plant. How do you feed your plants with it? That I haven't heard of before.
@@HamiltonHomestead I think we probably should, lol. I think you do a different ratio of yeast though, not sure.

@AlmostaGreenAcre-zs5eu I'll be honest I hadn't seen it before so you thought this old guy a new trick
Thank you so much. I’m always using brown sugar and it isn’t easy for me to get out to the store.❤
My pleasure and thank you 🙂I share similar struggles when it comes to getting around at times ❤

Thanks Barby 💕It definitely has a fully flavour. I look forward to you trying it out and letting me know 🙂
Woah, that's pretty affordable for Crosby molasses! Ours here for the small jar is $8. I buy it by the gallon for $17
Molasses is still affordable at least at Costco but other stores have gone crazy with pricing. Brown sugar prices are getting ridiculous. Have a fantastic weekend 💕and I hope your ribs are feeling better sistah 🙏
yep i ran out and had to get some at store paid about $8 for that Crosbys too usually get a gallon online for that much un sulphered too
@@vinivv Nice 🙂

Thank you ☺
So simple, thank you 😊
My pleasure. Thank you 🙂
Oooh thanks for the info! I’ll have to try this sometime. 😊
Your welcome and thanks for coming by 🙂
Molasses is like honey, it never goes bad. If it sugars, just heat it up and it will be fine.

@@pattidriscoll9407 That's incredible, wow, and you sure don't use a lot of molasses, lol.
Enjoyed your videos. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber. I'm in Texas.
Hello Gretchen and welcome 🙂Thanks so much. I'm located in New Brunswick, Canada.
interesting did not know this i like dark brown sugar glaze on spare ribs now I dont have to buy it special when I need it
Exactly Vinivv. Brown sugar makes for the perfect glaze on spare ribs. Thanks for sharing 🙂and now you have me thinking about glazed spare ribs, lol.
However, I might just add the molasses to whatever. No real need for brown sugar if there’s molasses in the cupboard.
Thanks, you can do that for sure 🙂I wouldn't want some recipes with a strong molasses taste however.
👏👏👏
Thank you 🙂
Does molasses go bad
Hi Sheila and thanks. Apparently not according to one of my viewers. They mentioned it never goes bad and I hadn't know that 🙂
show me i want to try it
Thanks 🙂 I hope you found the video useful
Heartfelt greetings from me and have a happy week . hope we maintain relations
Hello and thanks for coming by. Enjoy your week as well ☺
