Himalayan Chef Jaggery is a traditional, unrefined sugar that is made using an ancient method of boiling sugarcane juice. Unlike refined sugar, our jaggery retains much of its natural molasses content, giving it a rich, complex flavor and a deep golden color. What sets Jaggery apart from other sweeteners is its 100% natural processing and the fact that it retains its nutrition. Unlike refined sugar which undergoes a series of chemical processes, jaggery is made using a simple, traditional method that results in a product that is not only delicious but also packed with vitamins and minerals..
The Daily Value% of a nutrient in a serving of food reflects how much it contributes to a daily diet. The minimum dietary requirements are 2,000 calories per day.
Most health experts recommend limiting added sugar intake, including jaggery, to less than 10% of daily caloric intake, which is equivalent to about 12 teaspoons of sugar or 50 grams per day for someone consuming 2,000 calories.
Jaggery can be used as a sweetener in drinks, baked goods, sauces, marinades, candy making, and as a topping for desserts. Its natural flavor and rich golden color make it a popular choice in Indian, South Asian, and African cuisines.
