Made from dried chickpeas also known as garbanzo beans. Gram flour is also called Besan in Hindi. Sona Aakash Gram flour is 100% pure and made from the finest Bengal grams. Gram flour is popular among South Asian nations. In India, it is used to make pakoras. While in France it is used to make a traditional delicacy called Socca.
With Sona Aakash Besan your food will sing to your taste buds. A versatile legume with a mild nutty taste, chickpea flour is primarily made from Kala Channa/Bengal grams. Besan has recently grown in popularity as a gluten-free supplement for wheat.
Gram flour is often confused with Chickpea flour. Gram flour is made from Bengal Gram Dal which is small and black in contrast to Kabuli Channa or Chickpea. Each grain of Kala Channa is de-husked, roasted and then hulled in two. Finally it is ground into Besan.
Besan is pale yellow in colour and has a nutty aroma and taste. Sona Aakash Besan is slow ground to extract maximum flavour. There are no chemicals and the packaging is automated for quality and hygiene. Since besan is gluten-free, you cannot make a dough out of it. However, this gluten-free dietary supplement is used in many Indian recipes that you can try, such as: Koftas.
Black grams have high protein and fibre content. It also helps lower cholesterol; thus a good choice to replace red meat in your diet. You should include it in your diet because it is rich in proteins, fibres, and vitamins. Besan is perfect for those with high blood sugar since it has a low glycemic index. A cup of chickpea is all you need to get the folate you need for a day. Folate assists in preventing spinal injury in women during pregnancy.
