Description

Our flat light pre-roasted dry Rakthashali rice flakes are made from naturally farmed Rakthashali rice sourced from Kerala’s Palakkad district.

This Rakthashali rice is a rare and nearly extinct variety and is now being revived by a few passionate farmers like us.

Ayurveda uses this rice variety to correct the imbalance of ‘tridosha’ (namely vata, pita & kapha) and has properties potent enough to cure several ailments including liver, kidney & nerve disorders and is also known to combat cancer.

Traditional methods are used to process these rice flakes to ensure the nutrients are not robbed during the flattening process.

First the paddy is de-stoned and then soaked for 24 hours and then roasted in a conventional chamber with wood as fuel.

The de-husked rice is then flattened, hence the name flattened or beaten rice. Other locally popular names include “poha” or “aval” in the Malwa region and South India respectively.

Best before 365 days from the date of packing.
