Instead of Golden syrup
Nothing matches golden syrup’s mild invert-sugar flavour exactly, but glucose is closest in texture.
GlucoseUse the same weight. It is less sweet and less flavoursome, so taste and add a little sugar if needed.
HoneyUse the same weight but keep the heat lower. It is sweeter and more floral, so reduce slightly if the dish is delicate.
Light brown soft sugarUse the same weight dissolved in a little hot water. It gives a stronger molasses flavour and a darker colour.
