About Junnu

Junnu is a traditional Indian dessert hailing from the southern states, particularly Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Made from colostrum milk sourced during a cow's early lactation days, this unique dish stands out for its creamy texture and wholesome flavor. Junnu is typically prepared with colostrum milk, jaggery or sugar, and infused with cardamom for a fragrant touch. Rich in protein and essential nutrients, colostrum milk offers substantial health benefits, such as aiding immunity and supporting growth. However, due to its high calorie content attributed to the sweeteners, moderation is key for those mindful of sugar intake. Junnu is not just a delicacy but also a nutrient-dense offering, rooted deeply in Indian culinary tradition, connecting generations through its rich taste and cultural significance.
