WELCOME TO MY STORECeylon Pure Natural Kithul Jaggery Palm Hakuru Sri Lankan Organic Treacle
Kithul jaggery and Kithul treacle or syrup (locally known as KithulPani) are two of the prized food products in Sri Lanka sourced from the fishtail palm also called ‘jaggery palm’. They grow in fields and rainforest clearings.
To produce kithul jaggery, a partially refined palm sugar, the sap has to be boiled beyond the point it turns to the syrup so that it gains in thickness and its water content is further evaporated. The gooey honey-coloured mixture is left to cool off and solidify.
Kithul jaggery is as much a food sweetener as Kithulsyrup. It is the kithul jaggery that takes the pride of place as the perfect sweet accompaniment to the auspicious dish of milk rice on festive occasions. It is the sugar substitute to be nibbled on with a cup of herbal tea, the sweetener with congee, and the honey in the rich dessert wattalappam. More recently, it has become the flavor of modern delicacies like cake and ice cream.
Jaggery is a sweetener that’s becoming popular as a “healthy” replacement for sugar. The glucose and fructose content in the kithul syrup/treacle/jaggery is extremely low and as a result in the Glycaemic Index or GI, this is ranked as a low GI food.
