Telephone Sat Isabgol 200 Gr

Description

Telephone is the best known isabgol name out of Sidhpur, the Gujarati town that has processed psyllium for generations, and the brand mark is old enough that in much of India the word telephone on a packet means husk before it means anything else. Sat Isabgol is its long-running line.

Handle it as you would any psyllium husk: stir into a full glass of liquid, drink it immediately before it sets, and follow it with more water. In the kitchen it thickens, binds and holds moisture, which makes it useful in gluten free baking and in some chilled desserts. A 200 gram pack goes a very long way, because a serving is a spoonful.

How does it differ from the Bhusi pack? Both are psyllium husk from the same brand, but the listing does not state the grade difference. We have flagged it so the shop can add that detail.

Does it have a taste? Almost none. It is close to flavourless, which is why it disappears into a glass of water or a dough without changing how either tastes.

A smaller pack to start with is the 100 gram Bhusi pack, and the herbal range at Panjab Supermarket holds the rest. Vegetarian. Keep the pack sealed and always use a dry spoon, because the powder clumps the moment it meets damp.
