FORTUNE CHAKKI FRESH ATTA EXPORT 10KG

Description

Fortune Chakki Fresh Atta Export 10KG comes from one of the largest mills in India, whose name is on the atta and the cooking oil in a great many kitchens there. The sack sold here is the version packed for export markets rather than for Indian shelves.

Chakki fresh is the mill’s own phrase for stone ground flour sold quickly rather than stored, and in practice it means the same thing as chakki atta on any other bag. For a family eating rotis daily this and the Pillsbury sack are the two obvious choices, and the difference between them is taste and habit rather than anything measurable.

Does export pack mean a different quality? No. It is the packaging and labelling made for markets outside India, with the declarations those markets require. We are not going to tell you it is a better grade of wheat, because the pack does not say that and neither do we.

Fortune or Pillsbury for daily rotis? Both are stone milled whole wheat attas at the same size and much the same price, and households tend to be loyal to whichever they grew up with. If you have no preference, buy one, and buy the other next time to compare.

Cheaper to try first, the 1 kilo Aashirvaad bag tests the water before a sack, and atta at Panjab Supermarket carries every size from 1 to 10 kilos. Vegetarian. Decant a few days’ worth into a smaller airtight tin and keep the sack rolled shut, because a big bag left open goes stale and draws weevils.
