Tips & Secrets
- Roasting the mawa on low heat until it releases ghee is mandatory for achieving the most professional-grade authentic Rajkot peda flavor.
- Ensuring the sugar is added only when the mawa is lukewarm provides the absolute secret to achieving superior professional-grade non-sticky texture.
- The addition of a little Nutmeg powder provides the essential professional-grade warm-aromatic lift.
- Always use fresh mawa specifically to ensure the signature professional-grade melt-in-mouth richness is maintained.
