"I had the opportunity to try this spiced jaggery on my last trip to India, and I just had to bring it back for you." ~Sandeep
Jaggery, unlike white sugar, contains rich molasses and trace minerals naturally present in sugar cane juice. This is what gives it such a complex, bright, fruity flavor beyond just being sweet! The color of traditionally-made, chemical-free jaggery ranges from golden to dark brown.
Adding herbs and spices to jaggery has been an Indian tradition. Such an addition not only enhances jaggery's flavor, it also allows you to conveniently add these amazing spices and herbs to your diet. Enjoy a small piece of this Ayurvedic Jaggery with or at the end of a meal.
We seal jaggery in plastic to prevent contamination during shipping. However, jaggery stores better in a breathable container where it can get plenty of air, as excessive moisture can cause it to spoil. Grate with a coarse cheese grater to use, and store in a non-airtight container or in cheese cloth.
Delicious Ideas for how to Use Ayurvedic Jaggery:
Add a spoonful to hot, spiced chai
Stir into hot cooked oatmeal or other hot cereal
Mix into hot sweet potatoes with a spoonful of ghee
Combine with favorite nut butter; spread on banana, pear or apple slices
Stir into hot tea or coffee
Scrape or grate over yogurt or ice cream
Use in place of sugar in stove-top or baked custard
Soften and use in pumpkin pie
Sprinkle over peanut butter, almond butter or tahini on toast
Add a bit to simmering tomato or pasta sauce
Add to cookies in place of white or brown sugar
Soften and add to a spice cake recipe
Enjoy puréed in your favorite smoothie
Use a bit to sweeten and spice simmering apple or pear butter
Soften a small amount and add to marinades for meats; this adds rich, wonderful flavor

Coquille St. Jacques - your final dish is only as good as each individual ingredient. Grass-fed ghee is a staple in our pantry and underpins any recipe which calls for butter or oil. Seeds oils are a poor choice from a health perspective while grass-fed ghee supports your health. So whether I am sautéing sea scallops or making a batch of homemade granola - grass-fed ghee makes it happen.
Soft delicate spices delivered in the freshest jaggery I have had in 63 years of life. Bar none ... simply the best! Rapid shipping! Great merchant who wows consistently!
How many blocks of this have I gone through? Probably best not to know, lol. Much less sweet than refined sugar but much more delicious, this jaggery is the only one I've found that does not come hard as a rock (very occasionally this one comes more dry and hard, but not often). I use it in my (very milky) coffee in the mornings, and it gives a rich taste that makes the coffee much more delicious. It is lovely in dishes like Gujarati dal with kokum, because the sweetness it adds is mild and also mellows the dish. Golden sweetness with rich flavor--you can't beat that. A pantry staple, and it keeps well too.
I was very much looking forward to this item only to find out when it arrived that it’s contaminated with wheat, nuts, sesame seeds, soy, and dairy which meant it was unsafe for both me and my brother. I couldn’t find any allergen information at all online before or after I bought it, needless to say I was extremely disappointed.
I still prefer the jaggery version without spice but I still bought this for the medicinal properties coming from the spices which makes it even more beneficial for health.
I've been enjoying many of my foods with this spiced jaggery. Mainly in my coffee, tea, oatmeal, and cranberry sauce. I look forward to using it also as the sweeter for some gingerbread cookies. Thanks!
The jaggery is packaged well so it does not dry out. I've used this in several recipes and it's lovely to have the spices already added to it. It's easy to cut and tastes wonderful.
Forget about "raw" sugar, brown sugar, turbinado - this is the real thing, complete with micro nutrients AND spices. Minimally processed and great tasting.
I had read the word jaggery in some of the books I’ve read, but didn’t really know what it was, until I heard it mentioned in an interview as a sort of “healthy food.” I had also seen it listed at Pure Indian Foods when I placed an earlier order, but still didn’t know what it was/is. The jaggery with herbs and spices sounded intriguing. It’s delicious! A really nice treat! Plain jaggery is also tasty, but the herbs and spices in this one is delightful.
I really like this stuff. Nice amount of flavor added makes it better than plain jaggery. I find I am putting it in everything from Chai to Oatmeal. Sometimes I even stick a bit of it directly in my mouth if I want something sweet after a meal without going to a full desert. It's a mild sweetener; not as potent as plain sugar or honey.
If you enjoy having a little sweet after a meal but feel concerned about your health you will love this Jaggery! I was surprised at how delicious it was and yet could feel satisfied with a very small piece. One day I decided to spread a little sunflower butter on a bit and it was heaven also. That made me think there's many possibilities to be tried. I had heard horses love Jaggery so decided to give my rabbit a tiny piece and it made Barney very happy. Thanks to Pure Indian Foods for another incredible product! I don't know what I'd do without your company for my Ayurvedic cooking.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for the review Brenda. We are so happy you and Barney are enjoying the Ayurvedic Jaggery!
I bought it for the first time and was delighted. I have experimented with it in a few desserts already(only need a little for great results!) It was just right. Glad to discover new items.
This jaggery is one of the best gurs I've ever had. Beautiful dark brown color. Just the right hardness. No salty taste, no crystallization, and no bitterness. PERFECT!
I travel to India, Asia, South America, and Europe to bring you back some of the most pristine, pure, organic clean ingredients in the world. All the products you'll find here at Pure Indian Foods are ones that me and my family use personally.
My family has been making ghee since 1889. Today, my wife, Nalini (aka "The Ghee Lady"), carries on this tradition. She still makes all the ghee and tightens every jar by hand.
We are passionate about bringing you traditional and nourishing foods. It's our labor of love and service to human-kind. Thank you for supporting our small family business.
