Kala Jamun is a beloved Bengali sweet that shares similarities with Gulab Jamun but has its own unique characteristics. These delectable treats are typically made from khoya (solidified milk), paneer (Indian cottage cheese), or chhena (a type of fresh cheese), kneaded into a soft dough with a touch of flour or semolina and then shaped into small balls. Unlike the golden hue of Gulab Jamun, Kala Jamun has a dark brown to blackish color, achieved by frying the dough at a slightly lower temperature for a longer duration.
