At lehmans.pro at our store in Kidron, Ohio.[/caption] Blackstrap molasses just might be the new darling of the health-conscious, hipster foodie crowd. But the fact is, it's been around for ages, and generations have used it not only as a cooking ingredient, but also as a health tonic. We're not claiming any medical miracles, but blackstrap molasses is higher in iron, potassium and calcium than the ordinary stuff. It's considered the healthiest of the molasses since most of the sugar has been removed during the boiling process, while the nutrients and minerals remain. (While regular molasses is boiled twice, blackstrap molasses goes through three boilings.) It also has a stronger, more robust flavor -  ideal for that tired old baked bean recipe and other dishes that beg for a little "kick." Taste the difference by using blackstrap molasses in place of regular in your favorite recipe!
