Making granulated palm sugar is not much different from making a solid palm sugar. Both are made of nira, a white sap obtained by tapping the inflorescences of the palm tree.To turn it into sugar, the nira is first strained to remove dirt, then boiled until it becomes syrupy. It is then poured into a mold, usually made from half the husk of a palm, and is left to harden. After it is removed from the mold, the palm sugar is ready to use.
In making granulated palm sugar, however, the boiled nira is not simply poured into a mold. Instead, it is stirred and strained and dried so that it forms granules.
