"I had the opportunity to try this spiced jaggery on my last trip to India, and I just had to bring it back for you." ~Sandeep
Jaggery, unlike white sugar, contains rich molasses and trace minerals naturally present in sugar cane juice. This is what gives it such a complex, bright, fruity flavor beyond just being sweet! The color of traditionally-made, chemical-free jaggery ranges from golden to dark brown.
Adding herbs and spices to jaggery has been an Indian tradition. Such an addition not only enhances jaggery's flavor, it also allows you to conveniently add these amazing spices and herbs to your diet. Enjoy a small piece of this Ayurvedic Jaggery with or at the end of a meal.
We seal jaggery in plastic to prevent contamination during shipping. However, jaggery stores better in a breathable container where it can get plenty of air, as excessive moisture can cause it to spoil. Grate with a coarse cheese grater to use, and store in a non-airtight container or in cheese cloth.
