(This is, in part, a memory test for me.) I THINK you wanted to find
sorghum syrup. I saw some yesterday at Formaggio's Fresh Pond location.

Found it in May of 2015, thank you.

Here's what I said:


I finally had the sense to Google the item, plus "Boston." Weirdly, though, it did not give me all the results. That is, I found Christina's Spice & Specialty Foods in Cambridge, which has it, in two sizes - one size being a gallon - and another place, Boston's Homebrew Supply, which I haven't called yet, and Cambridge Naturals (mostly herbs, vitamins, and books).

I called CN. They did not carry it, but then told me about Modern Homebrew Emporium in Cambridge, which sells it in roughly quart-size containers. Yay.. (It weighs 3.3. lbs.)

The gingerbread recipe, BTW, comes from the 2014 book "Abraham Lincoln in the Kitchen: A Culinary View of Lincoln's Life and Times." It mentions you can use the syrup as a honey substitute, or in baked beans, or on pancakes.

Ah! I occasionally look at what Modern Homebrew Emporium has. You
remind me that I need to get to Cristina's again. (I usually got to
Penzey's, but...)
