“This flour is exceptional! Kneaded with warm water and made super soft rotis. They puffed up like balloons on the tawa and stayed tender even in lunchboxes till evening.”

Rajeshwari M.Verified purchase
Made traditional porridge and rotis for my elderly parents. It is so gentle on digestion. Fast delivery and high quality packaging.
Divya NambiarVerified purchase
Great quality flour. Needs slightly more warm water than regular wheat flour, but the rotis turn out soft and digest easily without any bloating.
Vikram RathoreVerified purchase
Zero adulteration with wheat or maida. You can taste the genuine nuttiness of heritage millets. Very satisfied with the purity and fine milling texture.
