Nanak Khoya, also known as Khoa, is a traditional dairy product widely used in Indian cuisine, particularly in making sweets and desserts. It’s essentially dried milk solids, obtained by simmering full-fat milk in a large, shallow iron pan until most of the moisture evaporates, leaving behind a thick, granular mass. This process requires constant stirring to prevent the milk solids from sticking to the bottom of the pan and to achieve an even consistency. The resulting khoya is creamy, dense, and rich in flavor, with a slightly caramelized taste.

Nanak is a brand that produces various dairy products, including khoya, ensuring quality and authenticity in their offerings. Nanak Khoya is often used as a base ingredient in a wide range of Indian sweets such as Gulab Jamun, Barfi, Peda, and more, imparting a luxurious creaminess and depth of flavor to these delicacies.
