Premium Channa Dal is a staple pulse made from split, skinned, and polished chickpeas (Bengal Gram). It is a fundamental ingredient in Pakistani dals, curries, and flours, prized for its quick-cooking nature, smooth texture, and mildly sweet, nutty flavor. This product is milled to a precise size and polished, then supplied directly from the pulse processing centers of Zabzi Mandi Burewala.
Key Features & Benefits
Characterized by its bright yellow color, split halves, and polished surface. Key benefits include a significantly faster cooking time compared to whole chickpeas, a smooth texture that breaks down easily to thicken gravies, and high digestibility due to the removal of the fibrous outer skin. It is also the primary source for high-quality besan (gram flour).
Composition
100% split, de-hulled kernels of Bengal Gram (Cicer arietinum). The milling process removes the outer black seed coat and splits the kernel, resulting in a product that is almost entirely the starchy endosperm, making it naturally gluten-free and easy to digest.
Calories & Nutrition
Per 40-gram uncooked serving (approx. ¼ cup): approximately 140 calories. It is an excellent source of plant-based protein (approx. 8 grams), complex carbohydrates, and dietary fiber. It is rich in folate, iron, magnesium, and B-vitamins, supporting energy metabolism and overall health.
Digestion Process
The removal of the seed coat makes it gentler on the digestive system than whole legumes. Its balanced composition of protein, fiber, and complex carbs ensures a low to medium glycemic index, providing a steady release of energy without spiking blood sugar levels.
Cooking Method
Requires rinsing but no soaking. Cooks relatively quickly—in 25-35 minutes—when simmered in water or broth (ratio ~1:3) until soft. It is the primary ingredient for classic Channa Dal, Dal Tadka, and is used as a thickening agent in curries like Salan. It is also roasted and ground for specific spice blends and snacks.
Customer Benefits
