Tips & Secrets
- Pulse the blender carefully; over-grinding will release oil and make the cashew powder sticky.
- Using whole cashews provide the essential flavor profile of authentic Kaju Katli.
- Kneading the warm dough is the absolute secret to achieving the signature glossy and smooth surface.
- Ensure the sugar syrup is not over-cooked; a hard string will make the sweet brittle and tough.
