Chakra Bajra Flour, 500g
€1,99
Chakra Bajra Flour 500g is the smallest bajra on the shelf, which for this flour is the sensible way to start. Bajra turns bitter with age faster than anything else here. Same-day delivery across the Utrecht region.
Description
Every other bajra in this aisle comes by the kilo or the two kilo, and for a flour that goes off as fast as this one does that is a real risk for a first-time buyer. Chakra pack a half kilo as well.
Bajra roti is an acquired taste, dark and strong and unlike anything a wheat-eating household is used to. Half a kilo is four or five rotlas, enough to find out whether your family will eat it before there are two kilos in the cupboard turning bitter.
Why start with 500 grams? Because bajra carries a lot of oil in the germ and goes bitter within a few months, and because the taste divides households. Half a kilo answers both questions cheaply.
How do I know if bajra flour has turned? Smell it. Fresh bajra smells earthy and faintly sweet; turned bajra smells sharp, almost like old nuts, and the roti will taste bitter no matter what goes with it.
Once you know you like it, the Chakra 2 kilo bajra bag is the bulk buy, and the millet flours in stock carry the jowar, ragi and barley. Vegetarian. Store it in a cool, dry place in a sealed container, because flour takes up damp and picks up the smell of whatever sits beside it.
