Sweetness is essential for making sweets and cooking. Many people are mindful of health and reduce white sugar intake.
While excessive consumption of sweets is not recommended, you can enjoy desserts without forcing yourself to abstain completely.
In macrobiotics, substitutes for white sugar such as rice syrup, amazake (sweet sake), and maple syrup are commonly used. All have a mild sweetness and are indispensable in cooking and baking. Here, we introduce the popular maple syrup among these options.
◆ A rare product finished with organic JAS certification and traditional methods.
High-quality maple syrup is famously harvested from Quebec, Canada, which Ohsawa Japan directly purchases and imports.
Quebec is one of the largest producers in the world, accounting for 90% of maple products.
Only about 4% of the maple syrup from organic farms with JAS certification is available among these.
The collected sap is simmered over a wood fire to produce maple syrup. This method of simmering with wood fire is a traditional technique passed down among Canadian Indigenous peoples.
Currently, most producers use gas, but only about 2% continue to use this traditional method. This syrup is carefully made while preserving tradition, making it a rare and valuable product.
＜Ohsawa Japan＞
Ohsawa Japan inherits the name George Ohsawa, the overseas nickname of Jōzō Sakurazawa.
Since its founding in 1945, it has been a core distributor of macrobiotic foods, selling products that meet the highest quality standards to natural food stores, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, pharmacies, cooking classes, and mail-order businesses nationwide.
＜What is macrobiotics?＞
If you are hearing this word for the first time, it might seem complicated... but macrobiotics is actually very simple.
The word is composed of three parts:
- "Macro" means large or long, as you know.- "Bio" refers to life; it shares the same root as biology.- "Tic" indicates a technique or study.
Putting these together, it means "a theory and method for living long and fully."
To achieve this, it is necessary to view life from a broad perspective.
If you or someone you love is currently experiencing physical or mental issues, first try to see the situation from a wider viewpoint and identify the underlying causes.
This is the starting point of macrobiotics.
