Facts for Prelims

Udangudi Panangkarupatti

News: Udangudi Panangkarupatti from Tamil Nadu has received a Geographical Indication (GI) Tag.

About:
• Udangudi Panangkarupatti is also referred to as palm jaggery.
• It is prepared using the palm sap collected from the inflorescence of palmyra trees that grow on the red sand dunes in and around the Tiruchendur region in Tamil Nadu.

How is it unique?
• Preparation is completely traditional in nature devoid of any modern strategies.
• The jaggery prepared from the palm sap from the region is unique due to the presence of red sand dune soil found in the region. This soil holds less groundwater. The moisture content in the atmosphere is less because of the dry climatic condition which leads to high sucrose content, in turn adding taste.
