Walnut Kelawo – Walnuts dipped in Honey & Mulberry Juice

Description

What is Hunza Chocolate/Hunza Candy?

Walnut Kelawo کیلاو (also spelled Kilao) is an extremely delicious cuisine of Hunza and Punial valley. It is prepared by repeatedly dipping walnuts in a sweetened juice of Honey, Mulberry, and Grapes. The nuts are first sewed in a thread by hand and sun-dried to get the crispiness. When naturally dried, the nuts are dipped in a chocolate-like paste of Mulberries, Grapes, and Honey mixed with Wheat Flour. 

Kelawo is also known as Hunza Candy. Some may term it as Hunza Chocolate, but as Kelawo does not contain any cocoa, it is not chocolate.

Hunza Candy is prepared fresh during June and November- when the nuts are fresh. You may consume the Kilao between meals or serve it as a dessert during New Year and Navroz celebrations. Walnut Kelawo is one of the best gifts to give, the best companion with coffee or Tumuro Tea.

Hunza Candy – Kelawo (Kilao) is available in three delicious Tastes: Almond Kelawo, Apricot Kelawo, and Walnut Kelawo (Kilao).

Benefits of Walnut Kelawo

Walnut Kelawo is the powerhouse of essential Fatty Acids and proteins. They are known to promote blood circulation, improve Hemoglobin levels and reduce Cholesterol. Molasses made from grapes and mulberries contain high levels of iron minerals. [1] Mulberries may also lower cholesterol levels, improve blood sugar control, and help prevent fatty liver disease. According to Healthline.com, Mulberries also decrease oxidative stress, reducing cancer risk.

As grape juice is also used in Hunza Candy, compounds in grapes may protect against heart disease by lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Both grapes and mulberries are rich in antioxidants, beneficial plant compounds that may protect against chronic health conditions.
