can i use substitute one sugar for another?

Thanks all, found another recipe which said use granulated sugar, so with that in mind and with all your help, have decided to use demerara sugar.;)

Hi guys,

I'm chutney making this afternoon too. The recipe I have says to put the spices in a muslin bag to boil in the vinegar.

I'm not doing very well - I don't have some of the "unground" spices or a muslin bag. Reckon I could just chuck in the ground versions and hope for the best??

Thanks

ZC

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing thread on swaping sugars

Hi all, for baking does it matter if you use soft light brown sugar instead of light muscavado?

Should be fine. I'm always swapping sugars around...

I use whatever I have! After all, sugar is sugar. Only the colour makes a difference.
