Retail – E.E. URID DALL WASHED 1 kg

Description

E.E. Urid Dall Washed 1 kg, split skinned black gram for dal and South Indian batters.

Urid Dall Washed is black gram that has been split and had its dark skin removed, leaving pale, ivory coloured lentils. East End Foods supplies it here as a dried pulse, with 1 kg as a single retail pack that gives a household ample to cook with. Being split and skinned, it softens more readily than whole urid, though it still needs soaking and boiling before use.

Key Features

• Split, skinned black gram (washed urid), pale and quick to soften
• 1 kg retail pack for regular cooking and batters
• Ground into batter for idli, dosa and vada
• A source of plant protein and fibre, though verify figures on pack
• From East End Foods, a Birmingham grocery brand since 1972

Cooking and Uses: Rinse and soak, then boil until soft for a smooth, creamy dal. For South Indian classics, soak and grind the dall into a batter for idli and dosa, or shape and fry it into crisp medu vada. It is also used in some spice pastes and to add body to dishes.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry cupboard in a sealed container away from moisture. Stored dry, it keeps well for months.
