Laxmi Jaggery Cubes (Jar) 500g

Bring the distinctive sweetness of jaggery to your kitchen with Laxmi Jaggery Cubes (Jar) 500g. Also known as gur or gud, jaggery is used in Indian sweets, drinks and savoury cooking. The cube format lets you take out a little at a time, whether you are sweetening a cup of tea or balancing the tang of a tamarind-based sauce.

Benefits for Everyday Cooking

Laxmi Jaggery Cubes (Jar) 500g is a versatile cupboard ingredient for home cooks who enjoy traditional sweeteners. Use a small amount to start and adjust to taste: jaggery adds its own flavour as well as sweetness, so it can change the character of a recipe compared with white sugar.

• Convenient cube format: Take out individual pieces and chop or grate them when a recipe calls for smaller amounts.
• Sweet and savoury uses: Suitable for experimenting with Indian desserts, chutneys, sauces and drinks.
• 500g jar: Keep the remaining cubes in their original container, closed securely and stored according to the label.
• Flexible portioning: Weigh the amount required by your recipe rather than assuming every cube has the same weight.

Ingredients and Composition

Jaggery is traditionally made by concentrating sugarcane juice; some varieties are made from palm sap. This describes jaggery generally and does not establish the exact formulation of Laxmi Jaggery Cubes (Jar) 500g. Refer to the jar for the complete ingredient list, source of the jaggery, any additives and allergen information. It is a sweetener, not a sugar-free alternative. No organic, vegan or gluten-free claim is made without confirmation from the product label.

How to Use

• Tea and other hot drinks: Dissolve a small piece in a hot water-based drink and adjust to taste. For milk tea, add after removing the pan from the heat and letting it cool slightly; jaggery can cause hot milk to split.
• Indian sweets: Chop or grate the required amount for recipes such as payasam, sweet pongal or laddoo. Follow the recipe's instructions for dissolving and cooking.
• Chutneys and sauces: Dissolve a little into a tamarind-based chutney or sauce to balance sourness. Taste before adding more.
• Making a syrup: Gently heat the measured jaggery with the water specified in your recipe, stirring until dissolved. Strain if necessary before continuing. Take care with hot syrup.
