Jaggery
Description
A Natural Sweetener with Rich Flavor and Nutritional Benefits
Jaggery, often referred to as “gur” in many parts of the world, is a traditional, unrefined sugar made from the concentrated sap of sugarcane or date palm. It is an all-natural sweetener that has been used for centuries in various cuisines across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Known for its rich, deep flavor and numerous health benefits, jaggery is a healthier alternative to refined sugar.
What Makes Jaggery Special?
Unlike refined sugars that are stripped of their natural nutrients, jaggery retains the vitamins and minerals from its raw form. It is rich in iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and B vitamins, making it a more nutritious option for those looking to satisfy their sweet tooth without compromising on health.
