Product Overview: Go back to your roots with Arhar Chilka. Unlike the common yellow variety, this version comes with the skin intact. It is a traditional favorite in rural India, prized for its superior health benefits. It cooks into a thick, flavorful curry that needs very few spices to taste good.
Why Choose Arhar Chilka? If you prioritize health and authentic taste, this is the choice for you. The skin adds a unique texture and a rustic aroma ("Sondi Khushbu") that you miss in polished grains. It is excellent for a healthy diet and those looking to increase their fiber intake naturally.
Ans: Unlike the bright yellow version, Arhar Chilka looks greenish-brown or speckled because of the skin attached to the split grains.
