Before buying khoya sweets in market, identify this wa
The festival of lights, Diwali, is considered the biggest festival in Hindu religion. A few days before the festival, its popularity is visible in the markets. The twinkling of lamps, the splendor of Rangoli and the sweets of this festival are the most special. We cannot imagine any festival without home-made dishes and sweets from shops. In such a situation, from Diwali to Bhai Dooj, Dhanteras, Tulsi Vivah and Chhath Puja, the sale of sweets is visible in the market. Sweets are mostly made from Mawa, since they are sold in abundance during festivals, hence their consumption is also high. Due to which a lot of adulterated mawa is sold during this period. Now in such a situation its full impact falls on our health. Many times the situation becomes such that people’s health deteriorates due to overeating. In such a situation, let us tell you how to identify fake mawa and how to recognize real mawa.
Fake Mawa is made from these things
Fake mawa is made from dangerous ingredients like cheap milk powder, talcum powder, lime, chalk and white chemicals. To make synthetic milk, mawa is prepared by mixing minor washing powder, refined oil, water and pure milk. At some places, potato and starch are also added to increase the weight of mawa.
This is how to identify real mawa
- You can also identify real mawa by testing it. For this, take a little mawa and taste it. If its taste is astringent then it is fake.
- Take some mawa in your hand and make a ball out of it. If it starts bursting then understand that it is fake. Apart from this, if khoya tablets start bursting after making them, then understand that the mawa is adulterated.
- Dissolve about 2 grams of khoya in 5 ml of hot water and after it cools down for some time, add iodine solution to it. If khoya is fake then its color will start turning blue.
- Mix some sugar in mawa and heat it. If it starts releasing water then it means the mawa is fake.
- When you are taking mawa. Take some mawa and rub it on your thumb nail. If it is genuine then the smell of ghee will linger for a long time.
- Real mawa does not stick to the mouth, whereas fake mawa sticks to the mouth.
