After the kids went to bed, I tried three quarters of a teaspoon in filter coffee. My four-star rating mainly reflects how well it worked in filter coffee. The flavor had a clean jaggery aroma. I would still consider another pack specifically for filter coffee.

I used two cubes in kheer. The result had a traditional flavor. For my routine as a office snack planner, the result in kheer made the purchase worthwhile.

The first thing I noticed in sweet pongal was the aroma. With two small cubes, the earthy note came through before the sweetness. I have used jaggery cubes the same way again.

I bought this for plain yogurt, but it also worked in banana bread. My four-star rating mainly reflects how well it worked in plain yogurt. In my Massachusetts kitchen, the result in plain yogurt justified a cautious reorder.

I used two small pieces in a desk snack. In my Maryland kitchen, a desk snack became the clearest reason to reorder. It has earned a regular place in my pantry.
