how to make gulkand - #24206

Jackson

I am really curious about how to make gulkand because I’ve heard so much about its benefits, but I’m always kinda confused by the process. A couple of weeks ago, I tried to make it myself after my grandma mentioned it helps with digestion and gets me relaxed, you know? I bought some fresh rose petals thinking it would be easy, but I wasn’t sure what to do after that. I mixed the petals with sugar like she said, but then I read different methods online and got kinda lost. Some people use lemon juice? Others just sugar with the petals, but mine ended up not being as sweet or fragrant as I hoped. The mixture looked kinda off too, so now I’m staring at this jar thinking did I do something wrong? Can someone please tell me how to make gulkand properly? Like, how many layers should I do with the petals? And does it have to sit for a certain time? Any tips would help, thanks! I really wanna get it right this time.

Take one glass jar We need to make layers First layer rose petals you can take as it is Or make small pieces Then 2nd layer rock sugar (mishri) crushed You can make 4-6 layers and then close the lid and let us stay for 5-6 days in sunlight The sugar will melt and gulkand will be formed automatically Medium sunlight is fine don't keep it in hot sun Gulkand is cooling in potency Really good for pitta dominant people Or patients suffering from constant acidity burning etc It also helps to give you strength in summers Make such alternate layers as per your choice
