A New Type of Jaggery Mould

Abstract

Jaggery is made by concentrating sugarcane juice and allowing the resulting syrup to set hard. It is cast in various shapes-big buckets, balls of various sizes, slabs, small cubes, etc. Each cane-growing tract seems to nave its preference for a particular type of mould. The choice of the mould- ypes may have been influenced originally by the type of cane grown in the ract, the keeping quality of the jaggery under the weather conditions pre- vailing in the consuming market, the fastidiousness of the consumer and the ype of labour available for making moulds.
