Organic Besan Flour, also known as chickpea flour or gram flour, is stonemilled from finely ground chickpeas. Organic Besan Flour is rich in protein and fibre. Besan Flour has a natural pale yellow colour and retains its chickpea taste. Ideal for creating flatbreads or as a thickener in savoury dishes.
No GMO. Preservative and additive free. Unbleached and chemical free.
Please note: The current batch of our 5kg Organic Australian Besan Flour has been tested for gluten, with no gluten detected at the test limit of <5ppm. However, this flour is processed on shared equipment that also processes gluten-containing flours. As a result, we DO NOT make a gluten-free claim for this product, as the presence of gluten cannot be ruled out - it may be present.
New stock is arriving soon that is processed differently and will be suitable for a gluten-free claim.
HOW TO USE
Organic Besan Flour is commonly used as a binding or thickening agent in many recipes and used widely in Indian and Middle Eastern cooking for pancakes, dumplings, sweetmeat and for pakora batter. Organic Besan flour can also be substituted for wheat based flours in recipes including bread, muffins and cakes.
GROWING & PROCESSING
Organic Besan Flour is produced by dehusking and milling brown chick peas. There is no further refinement, so the nutritional value of the whole pea is retained. To retain freshness, Organic Besan Flour should ideally be refrigerated.
