More Details

Indrayani Rice Flour is made by grinding Indrayani rice, a well-known rice variety cultivated in Maharashtra. The rice is processed into flour for use in various traditional recipes. Farmers associated with Kalsubai Millets grow this rice using natural farming practices without chemical fertilisers or synthetic pesticides.

In Maharashtrian kitchens, rice flour is used to prepare traditional dishes such as bhakri, ghavan, dosa, and other rice-based preparations. The flour can be mixed with water to make batter or dough depending on the recipe and is commonly used in everyday cooking as well as traditional preparations.

According to the Indian Food Composition Tables (ICMR-NIN), rice is a source of carbohydrates and contains small amounts of plant protein. These nutrients include naturally occurring carbohydrates and protein present in cereal grains. [VERIFY: ICMR-NIN micronutrient data for rice flour]

Choosing flour made from naturally grown rice means the grain is sourced directly from farmers rather than large commercial supply chains. At Kalsubai Millets, the rice is cultivated without chemical fertilisers or synthetic pesticides and processed into flour with minimal handling. Buying through a farmer producer company supports farmer incomes while maintaining transparency about sourcing.
