Tata Sampann Urad Dal Whole 1kg

Tata Sampann Whole Urad Dal (Black Gram) is the lentil at the heart of India's most celebrated dal dish — Dal Makhani. The whole black urad dal with its skin intact is slow-cooked overnight with rajma, butter, and cream to produce the rich, silky, intensely flavoured dal that is a pillar of Punjabi cuisine. The skin of whole urad dal contains significant fibre and nutrients that are lost in the dehusked white version. Urad dal is also the primary ingredient in South Indian idli and dosa batter where its unique mucilaginous property creates the fermented batter's characteristic texture and rise. Rich in protein, dietary fibre, calcium, and iron. Tata Sampann's unpolished whole urad dal is free from artificial lustre agents that conventional brands use to create an artificial shine. Soak overnight before cooking. Best prepared in a heavy-bottomed pot or slow cooker.
