Premium Gur, known as Jaggery, is an unrefined, traditional sweetener produced by concentrating the juice of Pakistani-grown sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum). It is a revered, mineral-rich food ingredient used across the country for its deep flavor and perceived health benefits. This Gur is crafted using time-honored methods and supplied in its pure, solid form from the processing units of Zabzi Mandi Burewala.
Key Features & Benefits
Characterized by its rich, golden-brown to dark brown hue, solid yet crumbly texture, and complex caramel-like flavor with hints of molasses. Key benefits include its retention of natural vitamins and minerals from sugarcane juice, a lower glycemic index (GI) compared to white sugar, and a flavor profile that enhances both sweet and savory dishes distinctively.
Composition
A composite of sucrose, invert sugars, and mineral salts from sugarcane juice. It contains no chemicals, bleaching agents, or synthetic additives. Its composition includes natural compounds like iron, magnesium, potassium, and traces of B-vitamins locked in during the slow, open-pan boiling process.
Calories & Nutrition
Per 15-gram serving (approx. one small piece): approximately 50-55 calories. Beyond calories from carbohydrates, it provides trace amounts of essential micronutrients, particularly iron (approx. 0.5-1 mg per 10g), making it more nutritionally complex than refined sugar. It contains small amounts of dietary fiber.
Digestion Process
Due to the presence of invert sugars and minerals, Gur is metabolized more slowly than pure white sugar, resulting in a moderate glycemic index. This leads to a more gradual release of energy, preventing the sharp spikes in blood sugar levels associated with refined sucrose.
Cooking & Usage Method
Commonly shaved, grated, or dissolved in warm water or milk. It is integral to traditional preparations like gur ka halwa, gur wali chai, rori (with missi roti), and sweet condiments (chutney). It can replace refined sugar in many recipes but imparts a distinct color and flavor.
Customer Benefits
