What is palm sugar?

Palm sugar is extracted from the top of the palm tree where the palm tree blooms. Here a notch is made from which the juice comes out. This juice is collected and greatly reduced to a thick brown paste. The taste of this juice can be compared to caramel with a slightly salty and alcoholic taste. The lighter the color after reducing, the more the end product tastes like regular sugar.
