10 FAQs on Mysore Pak Recipe

  1. Why is my Mysore Pak too hard? 🤔❌

    It may have been overcooked, or the sugar syrup may have been thicker than required.

  2. How do I make a soft Mysore Pak instead of a crispy one? 🍬

    Use more ghee and cook for a shorter time to get a softer texture.

  3. Why is my Mysore Pak not set properly? 😟

    The mixture may still be too runny. Cook it longer until it thickens and leaves the sides of the pan.

  4. How do I know if the sugar syrup is ready? 🍯✔️

    The sugar syrup should reach a one-string consistency—when you press a drop between your fingers, it should form a single thread.

  5. Can I make Mysore Pak without ghee? 🧈

    Ghee is essential for the traditional Mysore Pak texture, but you can use butter or oil for a different version.

  6. What type of gram flour (besan) should I use? 🌾

    Use fine-gram flour for a smooth texture. Coarse flour will make the Mysore Pak grainy.

  7. How long does Mysore Pak stay fresh? 🗓️🥡

    It stays fresh for 7-10 days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature.

  8. Can I add extra flavours to Mysore Pak? 🍫🌰

  9. Can I use jaggery instead of sugar? 🍯

  10. When should I cut the Mysore Pak for perfect pieces? 🔪🍰

    Cut it while it is still warm using a greased knife for smooth and even slices.
