PANELA / CHANCACA / RASPADURA / PILONCILLO


Panela organic sugar is the perfect unbleached, unrefined sweetener to use in place of refined sugars. Made on two sustainable Brazilian family farms, it is the only sugar where the sugar stream is not separated from the molasses - this helps it to retain most of its essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Its unique processing gives it a mild, caramel-like flavor which is superb for baking and sweetening food and drinks.

Panela is a pure, wholesome, traditional, unrefined, non-centrifugal whole sugar. It contains the natural goodness of minerals and vitamins inherently present in sugarcane juice and this crowns it as one of the most wholesome and healthy foods in the world. Its natural tropical flavor gives it an edge over any other product of the same kind! Panela is an accepted product worldwide and is known by many names such as- Chancaca, Raspadura, Piloncillo, Panela, Panocha.. Panela has been discovered to have some unique medicinal properties-- --Whole sugar prevents tooth decay. --Constipation (in babies), which is veery frequent with white sugar, disappears. --Natural high energy replacement. --Prevents nutritious anemia. --Whole sugar prevents rickets. --Thrush or aphthae rarely returns. --Children are more alive and full of vvitality.

Manufacture of sugar from cane juice employs a potpourri of chemicals as sulphur dioxide, lime, phosphoric acid, bleaching agents & viscosity reducers. The mineral salts, considered as impurities are removed and only leave a little behind, counted in milligrams. Chancaca - Panela, being a wholesome sugar, without doubt is rich in the vitally important mineral salts: 2.8 grams per 100 grams, that is to say 28 grams per kilogram, while only 300 milligrams per kilogram is found in refined sugar. Magnesium strengthens the nervous system. Potassium is vital to conserve the acid balance in the cells and combats acids and acetone. Iron, a composite of hemoglobin prevents anemia.
Interestingly, Panela has 5 times more minerals than brown sugar!Besides, sugar processing is carried out in mild steel equipment, which often leads to a high dosage of nickel in the mother liquor. In ordinary sugar, the protective woolsen factor is lost unlike in Panela.

Manufacturing process:Raw sugarcane juice is slowly simmered in copper pans and the water content is progressively evaporated. Clarification is done using natural vegetable clarificants. Scooping the boiling juice from one copper pan to another until the liquid starts to go hard carries out this process. The complete process is hygienic, untouched by hands, and most importantly 100% chemical-free!

Production process of the panela First, the sugar cane is hauled to the module with trucks or mules.
Milling: the juice of the sugar cane is extracted, obtaining the “raw juice” which will be used as a raw material for the production of Granulated Panela. The bagasse, or sugar cane husks, is dried to be used as a source of energy for the oven.
Filtering and clarification: The raw juice passes through a cold filtration using filter-clarifiers, which eliminate large particles (bagacilla) and remnants of the sugar cane.
Juice storage: The clarified and filtered juice is collected in a recipient of stainless steel from which the juice will begin the process.
Cleaning and clarification: When the juice reaches 40 to 60 °C (104 to 140 °F), a pH regulator is added which adjusts the pH of the juice from 5.2 to 6.8; this process permits the creation of thin layers called cachaza that are removed with instruments called descachazadores.
Juice evaporation: Once cleaned and clarified, the juice passes to a evaporation recipient where the temperature reaches 98 – 99 °C (208 to 210 °F). Also during this stage the thin and white cachaza are eliminated. The juice is concentrated as the water evaporates.
Juice concentration: The juice is passed through concentration recipients where they become thick and molasses-like. Once the juices are concentrated enough, the thickened juice reaches a precise “point” of concentration to obtain the ecological sugar, this point is from 124 to 130 °C (255 to 266 °F).
Crystallization: When the thickened juice reaches the point, it passes to a stainless steel recipient where the crystallization of the sugar occurs, thanks to continuous mixing with large wooden spatulas.
Cooling: Once crystallized, the sugar is cooled for half an hour to avoid compaction.
Sifting: The ecological sugar passes trough a stainless steel sieve with holes of 2 millimeters, the grains large than this will be reprocessed (added into the evaporation recipient).
Homogenization: Once sifted, the various batches of sugar are blended in a stainless steal recipient with a capacity of 2000 kilos, in order to obtain a uniform color and texture

Packaging/Weighing: The panela is packaged first in polyethylene bags and then in a polypropylene bag, weighed, and sent to the homogenization and packaging plant located in Piura.

Annatto -Urucum - Achiote


Annatto - Urucum - Achiote
Bixa orellana. Fam Bixaceae
Annatto is used both as a spice and a dyestuff. It may be better known to Mexican and Latin markets as achiote or in the Philippines as atsuwete or achuete .In the West it used to colour confectionery, butter, smoked fish and cheeses like Cheshire, Leicester, Edam and Muenster. As an effective natural colouring it is also used in cosmetics and textile manufacturing. It provides a bright and exotic appearance for many kinds of dishes. Yeats wrote “Good arnotto is the colour of fire” (Natural History, 1870). The Mayan Indians of Central America used the bright dye as war paint.


Spice Description: Annatto seeds are brick red, triangular in shape, 3 - 5 mm (1/8” - 3/16”). The seeds are available whole and can often be purchased in a block or paste form at Latin American markets.Bouquet: slightly peppery with a hint of nutmegFlavour: slightly sweet and peppery.Hotness Scale: 1 -2


Preparation and Storage: Annatto seeds are washed and dried separately from the pulp of the seed pod for culinary use. They may be added directly to a cooking liquid or infused in hot water until the desired colour is obtained and then used for stocks or colouring rice. It is also common to fry the seeds in oil for a few minutes (best done in a covered pan as the hot seeds jump), then discard the seeds and use the oil. Try using one teaspoon of seeds to 4 tablespoons of oil. Annatto seeds should be kept out of light in an airtight container.


Culinary Uses: As mentioned above, annatto is used for colouring cheeses, confectionery, butter and cheeses. It is more widely used in the Caribbean and Latin America, especially Guatemala and Mexico. The seeds are also particularly associated with Filipino cuisine, in dishes like; ukoy, shrimp and sweet potato fritters; pipian, chicken and pork in an annatto oil sauce; and kari-kari, a brightly coloured vegetable and oxtail stew.


Attributed Medicinal Properties: Annatto was once used to control fevers, dysentry and kidney diseases, though is now used mostly as a dye in medical preparations such as ointments and plasters. In India the pulp is used as an insect repellent.


Plant Description and Cultivation: A shrub indigenous to the Caribbean, Central and South America, with shiny heart-shaped leaves, sometimes with reddish veins. An attractive pink flower made it popular as a hedge plant in colonial gardens. The fruit capsule is heart-shaped, like a beech pod, with opposing clefts and red prickly spines. When ripe, the pod splits in half to reveal about fifty seeds encased in a red pulp. The pulp is used in many commercial dye products.The Bixa orellana is commercially grown for the dye product and for its seeds as a spice. It requires a tropical setting in a loamy soil at altitudes below 1,000 m (3,000 ft). It is sown from seed or from cuttings. The ripe fruits are collected then macerated in water. The dye settles and is collected and dried into cakes and the seeds are separated and washed.
