Tips & Secrets

  • Roasting the wheat in small batches is mandatory for achieving the most professional-grade authentic uniform puffing.
  • Ensuring the jaggery syrup is of string consistency (one-string) provides the absolute secret to achieving superior professional-grade long-lasting crunch.
  • The addition of a little sesame seeds provides the essential professional-grade visual and nutty lift.
  • Always allow the grains to cool completely before storing specifically to ensure the signature professional-grade crispness is maintained.
