You don't keep a bottle of rum...@ Jess - What?? You don't keep a bottle of rum in the house!? Shirley, ye jest! :-P <br /><br />I found this online resource for substituting rum extract in the place of actual rum liquor. Here you go: http://www.ochef.com/508.htm<br /><br />Substituting Rum Extract for the Real Thing =<br /> <br />If a recipe calls for rum, can rum flavoring be used in place of the rum, and, if so, what is the amount ratio? For example, if 1/2-cup of rum is needed, how much flavoring should be substituted? <br /><br /><br /> The folks at McCormick & Company say for every tablespoon of dark rum called for in a recipe, you should use 2 tablespoons of rum extract. For every 5 tablespoons of light rum, use 1 tablespoon of rum extract. <br /><br />So if the recipe calls for 1/2-cup of light rum, you would use 1 tablespoon and 2 teaspoons rum extract for the equivalent flavor (and depending on the recipe, you would probably need to add 3/8-cup of water to keep the ratio of liquid ingredients right). <br /><br />If the recipe calls for 1/2-cup of dark rum, it probably makes sense to go out and buy a bottle of rum, since a cup of rum extract will cost a fortune and the extra half-cup of liquid would sink many recipes.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345244543899178740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6814123888104864847.post-82099398495939621742011-01-05T10:09:06.585-08:002011-01-05T10:09:06.585-08:00I'm just the opposite.
