Tips & Secrets
- Using high-quality organic jaggery is the absolute secret to achieving a professional-grade rich color.
- Always roast the til on low flame; they burn professional-grade quickly and become bitter if overcooked.
- The water test for jaggery is mandatory to ensure the signature professional-grade brittle yet soft texture.
- Roll the ladoos while the mixture is still warm; if it cools completely, it will become a professional-grade hard mass.
