As another pandemic-wracked year ends, let's ring in the new one with a resolution to stay fit and safe. If you have had enough of home remedies and kaadha for flu and viral, try giving them a different spin with our immunity-boosting herbal jaggery.
A familiar and popular ingredient in most Indian homes, jaggery or gur is an unprocessed form of sugar. It is widely considered a better substitute for sugar or any other sweetening product, whether raw or refined. It has been used for centuries to promote better health and wellness.
At The Millet Store, we have now upped the health quotient further by bringing to you a herbal jaggery that is delicately infused with spices like ginger, pepper, cardamom, avarampoo, nutmeg, hibiscus flower and rose petals. Add it to your daily dose of drink or enjoy it raw and savour the goodness of the herbs. Herbal jaggery cleanses the system and is good for digestion and respiratory problems.
And if you thought this was something just for the mummies and daddies, here's the best part. It can be added to your little darling's daily breakfast or snack bowl of cereals, oats or muesli. You can also make another addition to your family's regular menu with a quick and easy fix - Herbal Jaggery and Multi Millet Pongal Mix.
It is very convenient to use. Simply follow the directions as mentioned on the pack and you have a delicious, no-mess, no-fuss, healthy breakfast that is guaranteed to be lapped up in no time by children and adults alike. This Pongal mix is suitable for all age groups and contains no preservatives or additives.
Sakarai Pongal, a sweet traditional favourite during the harvest festival of Pongal in Tamil Nadu is made with rice and jaggery. In this Pongal mix, the usual jaggery has been replaced by the herbal version and instead of rice, we have used millets to offer a more healthier alternative.
Millets are a rich source of fibre, protein and antioxidants. Four kinds of millets have been added in the mix - foxtail millet, little millet, barnyard millet and kodo millet. The result is a Pongal, which is just as delicious as the traditional fare and packed with the added advantage of numerous nutrients. It is perfect for the winter months.
Begin this New Year on a nutritious note with a healthy and delicious Herbal Jaggery and Multi Millet Pongal Mix. Go ahead and indulge your taste buds without worrying about the calories. Eat delicious and stay healthy!
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year. Have a Nutrilicious Year ahead!
