Retail – East End AMRITSARI SAKKAR 1kg

Description

East End Amritsari Sakkar 1 kg, unrefined cane jaggery with a deep, natural sweetness.

Amritsari Sakkar is a traditional unrefined cane sugar, often called jaggery, from East End Foods. The 1 kg is a single retail pack. It is made by boiling down sugar cane juice and setting it without refining, which keeps the natural molasses and gives a rounded, almost caramel sweetness.

Key Features

• Unrefined cane jaggery that keeps its natural molasses, so the flavour is deeper and warmer than refined sugar.
• 1 kg single retail pack, handy for regular home baking or for a shop shelf.
• Melts readily into warm milk, tea, porridge and syrups.
• A store cupboard staple in Punjabi and wider South Asian cooking, from sweets to festive dishes.
• Adds colour and a gentle caramel note to marinades and chutneys.

Cooking and Uses: Break or grate the amount you need and dissolve it into warm liquid for chai, kheer, halwa or homemade syrups. Caterers use it to sweeten curries and dals or to balance tamarind in chutneys. It also works well in baking where you want a darker, more treacly sweetness.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry place in an airtight container once opened, away from moisture which can make it sticky.

A: Yes. Sakkar is a regional name for unrefined cane jaggery, boiled down cane juice set into solid form without refining.
