In the caption, the vlogger clarified that she has, in fact, made jaggery. She wrote, “There are a ton of different ways to make it, but this is how I made it with the tools I already had. And since we’re not removing the molasses from this sugar or crystallizing it, we’re actually making a traditional form of sugar called jaggery or gur. It’s a very common ingredient used in cooking all over the world, especially in India and many other South Asian countries. If you’re wondering why it’s brown, it’s because it contains a considerable amount of molasses (molasses comes from sugar cane). To make crystallized white sugar, you need to use a centrifuge to remove the molasses, which is something I definitely want to try at some point.”
