Palm Sugar
I have had a tub of palm sugar for a while now, and it seems to have turned into a syrup consistency.
The sugar is in a sealed plastic pouch inside a plastic tub. Is it still okay to use ? |

Don't you find this is the case with all these 'special' ingredients? I love Thai/Mexican/Chinese etc but quite often you need one tablespoon of a certain ingredient and then never find the need for it for months by which time it's gone off, this type of ingredient is usually expensive too!
