It is believed that a piece of jaggery, a red onion, and a rotlo are enough for a person to survive each day!

This gingery brittle is a sweet that many Parsi homes traditionally prepare through the winter months. It is a naturally healthy way to build immunity through the cold season. I have learned that jaggery was very much a part of Persian cuisine many centuries ago. Somewhere down the years, it got lost, and you no longer come across it mentioned in their recipes.
