To protect themselves from the cold in winter, people often make and store laddus from ingredients like dry fruits, gum, and sesame seeds. These laddus are not only delicious but also provide warmth to the body. But sometimes some small mistakes while making laddus can spoil their texture and taste, making them look hard and stone-like. If you are also facing such problems, then next time while making laddus, keep these easy cooking tips in mind so that your laddus can be perfect.
Tips to make laddu soft:
- Keep in mind the proportions: The correct proportion of all the ingredients is very important while making laddu. If the amount of ghee in the flour is less, then the laddus will be hard. So, make sure to add appropriate amount of ghee as it makes the laddus soft and tasty.
- Properly Roasted Mixture: It is important to fry the gram flour or flour thoroughly for the laddus. If roasting is not done properly, the laddus may appear raw and hard. Fry it on low flame until its color turns light brown and a nice aroma starts coming out.
- Caution while adding sweets: To maintain sweetness in laddu, use sugar or jaggery properly. If you are using powdered sugar, add it once the mixture has cooled. At the same time, if jaggery is used, melt it lightly in ghee and mix it. Use a wire spoon while adding sugar syrup, as it helps in keeping the laddu soft.
By following these tips you too can make your laddus soft and tasty. Make these in winter and enjoy with your family!
