What is Jaggery powder?
Jaggery powder is a sweetener that is gaining popularity as a "healthy" substitute for sugar. Raw, concentrated sugarcane juice is heated until it solidifies, making it a kind of unprocessed sugar. Jaggery powder is a staple of the diet in most regions of India. Jaggery has a flavor similar to caramel toffee and thick molasses. Jaggery is widely used in syrups, herbal supplements, sweets, and truffles. Jaggery is also used to make many Indian traditional sweets, especially sakkarai pongal.
