In fact, recently at the food festival at Pragati Maidan in Delhi Morena’s Gajak was very much liked by delegations from other countries including Italy, Dubai, England. How to export Morena’s Gajak? NRIs also discussed this.
The Government of India had organized the Aahar International Food Festival and Fair in Delhi, in which the best information about food products from across Asia was included. Here foreigners tasted Morena’s Gajak and since then the exercise for its branding started. According to traders, apart from the metropolitan cities of the country, Morena’s fame goes to foreign countries, but branding will increase this business.
Gajak Recipe
Desi pure and clean sesame is required to make Gajak. First of all, clean sesame seeds are roasted in ghee on low flame. Mole should not burn. Jaggery syrup is prepared with clean water. After 20 minutes the syrup is cooled in a big plate. The layer is made and it is pulled with the help of wood by hanging it on the wall. Keep stirring until the color of the syrup turns completely white. This makes Gajak crispy.
Now add sesame seeds to this syrup. After that they beat him fiercely. This takes about 15 minutes. After mixing well, Gajak is cut according to the size by placing it on a big stone slab.
Why is Morena’s Gajak special?
Its effect is said to be different due to the water of Chambal. Gajak is made in many places in the country and state and is sold in many places in the name of Morena Gajak, but the taste of the original Gajak here is different from the sweetness in the water here.
