Bone-Friendly Choice
Often picked for mineral-rich traditional meals.
Black Gram Kali Flour is a specially prepared flour blend for cooking ulundhu kali — the dense, satiny black gram porridge traditionally given to young girls at puberty ceremonies and to women recovering from childbirth in Tamil Nadu. The base is whole urad dal, dry-roasted and ground with a small proportion of raw rice to give the cooked kali its characteristic stickiness and gloss. To prepare: simmer in water with coconut milk and jaggery until the mixture thickens into a smooth, dense porridge. The cooked kali is dark, rich and very filling. The 250g pack makes 4–6 servings. No preservatives, artificial flavours or colours. Mrs. Esakkiammal prepares the flour blend in small batches at Iyarkai Pantry. Ulundhu kali is a ceremonial food in Tamil culture and this flour is consistently requested for traditional Tamil occasion gifts.

Black Gram Kali Flour is built around black gram (ulundhu), so the nutrition story comes from familiar pantry ingredients rather than artificial fortification. Customers usually choose it for bone-friendly choice and protein rich. Use it as part of a balanced meal or snack routine, not as a medical treatment.
