Brown Sugar: Chef Auzerais Bellamy & Wholesome Sweeteners

Brown sugar is an ingredient with widespread use contributing a dark sweetness to both baked goods -- and savory dishes for sweet sauces and glazes. Its distinctive brown color due to the presence of molasses adds depth in flavor -- and has been a familiar taste since it originated during the sugar trade in the 1490s. Professional pastry chef Auzerais Bellamy of Blondery, a female and minority owned direct-to-consumer bakery, shares why brown sugar is essential to her baking, how the ingredient has evolved over decades, and her efforts to bring more diversity and equity to fine dining kitchens. Wholesome Sweeteners' Mitchell Kruesi reveals how the brand became the first to bring high-quality, organic and Fair Trade sweeteners to the US, and their expansive portfolio of sugar, honey and agave products that are changing the sweetener market today.Follow @blondery @wholesomesweethttps://blondery.com/https://shop.wholesomesweet.com/In partnership with The Chefs' Warehouse, a specialty food distributor that has been purveying high-quality artisan ingredients to chefs for over 30 years @wherechefsshophttps://www.chefswarehouse.com/Produced by HayNow Media @haynowmediahttp://haynowmedia.com/
