Indian sugar. Not as refined as white sugar. However, it can be
replaced by brown or demerara sugar.
Food Reference website says:
Jaggery, Jaggary
Jaggery or jaggary is an unrefined crude brown sugar obtained from
the sap of the East Indian jaggery palm. Produced by boiling the sap
of the palm, it is popular in India and Southeast Asia as a sweetener
and ingredient in curries, especially vegetarian curries. Jaggery
tastes somewhat like a winey dark brown sugar, and is shaped into
balls, or solid cakes. Also known as ‘palm sugar.’
Next time I go buy achar, I'll ask the merchant about jaggery.
