Like a bottle of lightly fruity caramel syrup, but made only with dates and water, [Joolies organic date syrup](https://blog.joolies.com/https/blog.joolies.com/bittersweet-goodbye-to-joolies-date-syrup) has livened up a wide variety of items I cook. I love that it’s a liquid version of a dried fruit, rather than a sugar syrup or man-made non-caloric syrup. Adding it to a recipe is a swap from a nutrient-void ingredient to one full of the nutrition of dates.

> "Your savory recipes will never be the same again with this sweetener."

Enter Joolies, a date brand that has brought a liquified, easy-to-use version of dates to the mainstream. Date syrup isn’t a new idea, but Joolies is the first to be so widely available, carried at big box grocers rather than only international markets. It’s a take on what Israelis call silan, which they use for drizzling on pancakes and as a dessert sweetener. 

While it’s a natural choice for sweet recipes, my favorite use for [Joolies](https://joolies.com/collections/all/) is in savory applications. I love punchy salad dressings, but I don’t enjoy the sourness that a high vinegar ratio can involve. A drizzle of [Joolies syrup](https://blog.joolies.com/https/blog.joolies.com/bittersweet-goodbye-to-joolies-date-syrup) cuts right through that tang, enabling me to make dressings that are lower in oil than average without feeling too sharp on the palate.

With the vegetable slaws I regularly make for my private chef client, I compose dressings directly in the mixing bowl with Dijon mustard, white balsamic or Champagne vinegar, [high-phenolic olive oil](https://www.thespruceeats.com/kyoord-high-phenolic-olive-oil-review-6744376), torn fresh herbs, salt/pepper, and a hearty dash of date syrup. The date syrup adds thickness to the dressing in addition to a sweet flavor that balances and mellows the other, stronger tasting, ingredients.
