Hola people. Still enjoying the winter? There’s something special about the winter, isn’t it? You love being out in the mild sun, enjoy a great lunch, sip some hot coffee, enjoy some cakes and have an endless gossip with friends. Winters are also awesome for date palm jaggery or ‘nolen gur’ that we call in Bengali. You can extract the liquid secretion from the date palm trees only in the cold winter mornings. This kind of date palm jaggery is a specialty of Bengal and in winters you will find various kinds of sweets flavored with the date palm jaggery. One of the popular kind is Joynagarer moa. Now if you can’t find ‘nolen gur‘ you can always substitute with sugar for the sweetness. Today I have the awesome Uttpal Krushna who we all fondly call UK from Fashionable Foodz sharing an easy Bengali Moa Recipe with sugar and also explains how to make the authentic way in his Bengali Joynagarer Moa Recipe with ‘nolen gur‘ (if you have managed to source it).
