So, what is sirope de arroz?
Sirope de arroz, also known as rice syrup, is a natural sweetener derived from brown rice. It is made by breaking down the starches in brown rice through a cooking process that converts them into a liquid syrup. This syrup has a mild, neutral flavor that makes it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. Unlike refined sugar, sirope de arroz is a complex carbohydrate that is slowly metabolized by the body, providing a sustained source of energy without causing spikes in blood sugar levels. This makes it a popular alternative to traditional sweeteners for people who are watching their sugar intake or following a vegan or gluten-free diet.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
