Natco Jaggery(Cane Sugar) 1KG

The Jaggery was as expected, very good, excellent addition for my cooking.

This is a much healthier option to processed sugar. It's quite expensive though and sold much cheaper in Asian or African stores.Regardless, I'm glad I bought it and it has a lovely sweet taste.Perfect for your tea.

I have bought and used this product before and found it superb in the meals that I made. An excellent product

I've never used Jaggery before but remember it was featured on a Rick Stein cooking programme in India.I purchased this to make Tapeche. Fermented pineapple beer made from Jaggery, pineapple rind, ginger and cinnamon.Never made it before but YouTube made it look easy. Put all the ingredients in yesterday and it's started to ferment already.The recipe states brown sugar doesn't really cut it so I'm very happy to use the natural raw cane that is, Jaggery.Easily cut with a big kitchen knife. Texture is similar to a hard fudge. Great but of kit that I'll be using in a second batch hopefully. Enjoy.

Some of the negative reviews for this product state that it arrived spoiled or is inedible because of white spots on the product. These people are wrong. What they've shown in their images is actually the crystalisation of sugars in the block, much in the same way that you may see white structures in crystalised honey. So ignore the fear mongering.Flavour wise, this is like a cross between molasses and honey. It's quite strong, particularly when turned into a syrup. It's great for adding flavour to spicy dishes, or in my case - tepache (a fermented Mexican drink)!It comes as a solid block, does not dissolve easily in water. The easiest way of using it is by dissolving it in hot water then adding. However, if you don't want to use water you could grate it finely into a sauce.

Happy

Ok
