In India winter brings is numerous delights and one of them is jaggery that
takes the food experience to another level. Though it's available all through
the year but the production peaks during winters when the sugarcane crop
is abundant. So while traveling to Haridwar we stopped by a small jaggery
making unit to witness how this beloved food item is prepared.
First come the sugarcane crop which is crushed to extract the juice. This
juice is then put to boil. While doing so it is clarified using okra stem juice.
The impurities are skimmed off and it is further boiled till it becomes
concentrated. This thick mixture poured on an open tray and cooled by
constant scraping process. The whole thing eventually solidifies but it is still
pliant. These are then shaped into lumps and are dispatched for being sold.
The leftover from the sugarcane crop is sent to paper mill for paper
production. Hope you enjoy this process of jaggery process.
