Heera Urid Dal Washed 1kg
Description
Heera Urid Dal Washed consists of split black gram lentils with the outer skins completely removed. These creamy-white lentils are known for their mild flavour and a unique, mucilaginous (sticky) texture when cooked, which is essential for many iconic South Asian textures.
Culinary Versatility: This is the "secret ingredient" for making the perfect Idli and Dosa batter, as it provides the necessary fermentation and fluffiness. It is also the base for Vada, creamy Urid Dal Tadka, and the famous Dal Makhani when a smooth, buttery consistency is desired.
Pro-Tip: For "Restaurant-Style Fluffy Vadas," soak the dal for 3–4 hours, then grind it using as little water as possible until it’s a thick, airy paste. If you are cooking it as a dal, adding freshly grated ginger during the boiling process helps neutralize its natural heaviness and aids in digestion.
Nutritional Benefits: A high-quality source of Plant Protein and Essential Amino Acids. It is particularly rich in Magnesium and Phosphorus, which are vital for bone health, and its high fiber content helps in maintaining a healthy digestive tract.
Storage & Care: Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Because the protective skin has been removed, "washed" dal is more sensitive to moisture and light. Keep it in a dark cupboard to maintain its pearly white colour and prevent it from turning yellow or becoming stale.
