Retail – E.E. URID DALL WASHED 500 g

Description

E.E. Urid Dall Washed 500 g, split skinned black gram for dal and batters.

Urid Dall Washed is black gram that has been split and skinned, giving pale, ivory lentils. East End Foods offers it here as a dried pulse, and 500 g is a single retail pack, a handy smaller size for occasional cooks or trying it out. Because it is split and skinned, it softens faster than whole urid, though it still needs soaking and boiling first.

Key Features

• Split, skinned black gram (washed urid), pale and quick to cook
• 500 g retail pack, a convenient smaller size
• Ideal 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 established in 1972

Cooking and Uses: Rinse and soak, then boil until soft for a smooth, creamy dal. For South Indian favourites, soak and grind into batter for idli and dosa, or shape and fry into crisp medu vada. It also lends body to spice pastes and lentil dishes.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place in a sealed container, away from damp. Kept dry, it lasts for many months.
