Granulated white sugar is one of the most common and essential ingredients in the kitchen, especially in baking and beverage preparation. It is a type of refined sugar, obtained from sugarcane or sugar beet, which has been purified and crystallized to obtain small, uniform white crystals.
Its origin dates back centuries, with the expansion of sugarcane cultivation in tropical regions such as Latin America, the Caribbean, and Asia. Today, granulated white sugar is a global product, available in practically every kitchen in the world.
Regarding its properties, it is highly soluble in liquids, which facilitates its use in a wide variety of recipes, from making doughs, syrups, and desserts to sweetening infusions and beverages. It adds sweetness, improves texture, and aids in the preservation of certain foods.
In the culinary and popular sphere of Hispanic America, granulated white sugar has several synonyms or alternative names depending on the region, including: white sugar, crystal sugar, table sugar, or simply sugar. In some countries, it is also known as common sugar.
