Produced in an FSSAI-approved unit in Tenkasi, Tamil Nadu, our Sesame Chikki (Ellu Mittai) is crafted using a wood-fired preparation method, allowing the jaggery to bind slowly with sesame seeds. This creates a firm, crisp bite with a naturally roasted aroma. Commonly referred to as til chikki or black sesame chikki, it carries a traditional South Indian character shaped by simple ingredients and consistent preparation.
Preparation Style & Texture Profile
- Crafted by experienced makers who carefully monitor the jaggery stage, resulting in a structured texture that breaks cleanly without stickiness.
- The use of wood fire introduces a gradual heating process, helping develop a deep, slightly toasted sesame flavor with a natural richness.
- Following traditional ellu mittai practices, the mixture is spread and set at the right stage to achieve a firm yet bite-friendly consistency.
- The final texture delivers a subtle crunch with a nutty depth, making it distinct from overly hard or overly soft variants.
Ingredient Selection & Processing Approach
- Sesame Seeds Combined with Jaggery – Prepared using well-sourced sesame seeds and natural jaggery, maintaining a straightforward ingredient base.
- No Refined Sugar or Added Syrups – The sweetness is derived entirely from jaggery, avoiding the use of white sugar or liquid glucose.
- Free from Artificial Additives – This sesame-based chikki is made without synthetic flavors, preservatives, or chemical additives.
- Process Rooted in Tradition – Uses a conventional preparation flow that preserves both taste and structure without shortcuts.
- Handled in a Regulated Facility – Manufactured under licensed conditions in Tamil Nadu to ensure hygiene and consistency.
- Batch-Based Preparation & Packing – Produced in manageable quantities and packed carefully to retain quality over time.
