Product of Pakistan: Pehalwan Brand
Rewri, a crunchy sesame sweet usually eaten in colder weathers.
To make it, gurr or jaggery, is first mixed with glucose and then melted.
Desi ghee is added into the mix and is cooked on low heat for a few hours.
It is then left to cool.
Sesame seeds are baked separately and are used to coat the now-cooled gur and ghee mix.
레브리는 전통적으로 만든 흑설탕과 포도당을 참께랑 섞어서 구운뒤 녹여서 만든다.
전통 버터에 오래 볶아서 만들기 때문에 건강에 좋고 겨울에 추울 때 많이 먹는다.
빼흘라완이라는 이름은 파키스탄의 유명인 레슬링 선수 (빼흘라완)가 만들어서 그렇다.
Pehalwan Rewri History:
The sweet made its way to Chakwal some 64 years ago, when the late Fazal Elahi, a sweet vendor, began making rewri in 1951.
After his grandson, Zaffar Iqbal, was born in 1959, Mr Elahi named his rewri ‘Zaffar Rewri’, which quickly became a household name in the district.
The late Haji Mohammad ‘Pehlwan’ Nazeer soon caught on to the trend and began to sell his own ‘Pehlwan Rewri’ with his brother-in-law, Haji Gulsher.
The company says, “The secret to our product’s fame is the desi ghee; it has been made with desi ghee since the beginning, some four decades ago.”
