Naatu Sarkarai (நாட்டு சர்க்கரை) or Jaggery Powder is a natural sweetener made from sugarcane or palm sap. It retains essential nutrients like iron, magnesium, and potassium, unlike refined sugar. It is commonly used in Tamil cuisine to sweeten desserts, sweets like payasam, and even savory dishes like sambar and rasam. Health benefits include improving digestion, boosting immunity, and providing a natural energy source. Jaggery powder also helps detoxify the body and aids in blood purification. For storage, it should be kept in an airtight container, away from moisture, to prevent clumping and maintain its freshness.
