What are Jaggery Bites?
Jaggery bites are small pieces of unrefined jaggery made from boiled sugarcane juice or palm sap. These natural, sweet chunks are a healthier choice than refined sugar because they contain important nutrients like iron, magnesium, and potassium. Easy to use, jaggery bites can be eaten as a snack, added to tea, milk, or desserts, or used in cooking. They have a rich, caramel flavor and a soft, chewy texture, often used in traditional Indian and South Asian dishes.
How to Use Jaggery Bites
Jaggery bites can be enjoyed as a natural sweet treat or used in cooking and baking. Add them to tea or warm milk, melt into sauces or desserts, or eat a piece after meals to aid digestion. They’re perfect for preparing Indian sweets like chikki, payasam, or jaggery-based laddoos. It’s a wholesome substitute for sugar in daily use.
