What Is Khandsari Sugar? India's Traditional Open-Pan Raw Sugar
Khandsari Sugar - also widely known as Khand Sugar or Desi Khand - is a traditional raw sugar, physically extracted from sugarcane juice using open-pan processing - a method that differs from the closed-pan, high-temperature processing used in conventional mill-manufactured sugars. Sometimes historically referred to as the "mother of raw sugars," Khandsari has been produced in India for centuries, particularly across the sugarcane-growing regions of western Uttar Pradesh.
Because it is processed in an open pan rather than a closed system at higher temperatures, khandsari sugar retains more of its natural characteristics compared to heavily refined sugars. AltSugar™ Khandsari Sugar is organic khandsari sugar sourced through traditional processing methods, minimally refined and free from artificial bleaching.
As with any handcrafted, open-pan sugar, slight natural variation in colour and texture can occur between batches - a genuine characteristic of traditional processing, not a quality inconsistency.
