Flour

Choosing the Right flour

Flour is the foundation of South Asian bread and snacks.

Atta makes daily rotis and parathas that puff and stay soft, maida gives naan and pastries their tender crumb, and besan brings nutty depth to pakoras, kadhi, and batters.

Match the flour to the dish and the bag size to how often you cook.

Fresh breads come together faster with the right partners on hand.

Add ghee and cooking oils to roll and cook your rotis, season with Indian spices, and keep paneer and dairy at Panjab Supermarket ready for paneer dishes and lassi.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which flour is best for rotis and chapatis?

A good wholewheat atta is best for rotis and chapatis. It has the gluten and bran balance that lets the dough roll thin and puff up soft on the tawa.

What is besan used for?

Besan, or gram flour, is used for pakoras, kadhi, chilla, and many sweets. It adds a nutty flavour and binds batters well.
