    1. Brown sugar should always be stored in an airtight container
    2. If your sugar gets hard, microwave it for a few seconds to soften it
    3. Pay attention to your recipe: packed brown sugar will have a different weight than loose brown sugar
    4. Add a pinch of brown sugar to guacamole with the salt

  • Homemade Brown Sugar
