: The Goodness of Gram Flour (Besan)
Besan is much more than just flour; it’s a culinary cornerstone:

• Nutty & Earthy Flavor: Imparts a distinct, slightly sweet, and nutty flavor to dishes, which deepens beautifully when roasted.

• Excellent for Batters & Binding: Its unique properties make it ideal for creating crispy batters for pakoras, bhajis, and other fried snacks. It also acts as a great binding agent in cutlets, koftas, and vegetarian burgers.

• Foundation for Sweets (Mithai): The star ingredient in beloved Indian sweets like Besan Ladoo, Mysore Pak, Besan Barfi, and Mohanthal.

• Naturally Gluten-Free: A fantastic alternative to wheat flour for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, suitable for many gluten-free recipes.

• Rich in Protein & Fiber: Gram flour is a good source of plant-based protein and dietary fiber, contributing to satiety and digestive health.

• Trusted Heera Quality: Heera is a well-regarded brand, ensuring this gram flour is finely ground and of high quality for optimal results in your cooking and baking.

• Economical 2kg Value Pack: Perfect for those who use besan regularly, offering great savings and ensuring you’re always stocked up.
