Coconut Jaggery

Villukattu Coconuts

Coconut jaggery, also known as coconut palm sugar or coconut sugar, is a sweetener derived from the sap of coconut palm tree flowers. It is a traditional sweetener that has been used in various cuisines, particularly in Southeast Asia.

To produce coconut jaggery, the sap is extracted from the flower buds of the coconut palm tree. The sap is then boiled down to evaporate the moisture, resulting in a thick syrup. This syrup is further cooled and solidified into blocks or granules, which are the final form of coconut jaggery.
