Date Syrup / Dattelsirup

Date syrup is one of the oldest sweeteners available today, with a unique fruity flavor of its own. It has vital substances such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, beta carotene, vitamin D, C, B3, B5, folic acid, phosphorus and sodium. To make date syrup, dates are heated with a little water, mixed and pressed through a filter to separate the seeds and other insoluble matter from the nectar. Although date syrup has been known in other parts of the world for thousands of years, interest in date syrup has only recently increased in the Western world
