Flour (atta)

Atta (pronounced uht-tuh) is a finely ground whole wheat flour originating from the Indian subcontinent. It is the essential ingredient for daily staples like rotis, chapatis, and parathas.

Here is a detailed description of what makes it unique compared to standard Western flours:

1. The Composition

Unlike refined "white" flour (Maida), Atta is a whole-meal flour. This means it is made by grinding the entire wheat kernel, including:

  • The Bran: The fiber-rich outer shell.
  • The Germ: The nutrient-dense core.
  • The Endosperm: The starchy middle layer.
