Product Description

Native Black Gram, known as Naatu Ulundhu (நாட்டு உளுந்து), is a traditional whole black gram pulse belonging to the species Vigna mungo. The mature seeds have a naturally dark seed coat and are commonly used in South Indian cooking. When the whole seed is used, the outer seed coat is retained, giving it a characteristic dark appearance.

Whole urad is traditionally used in preparations such as idli, dosa, vada, ulundhu kali, dal and other pulse-based dishes. It can be soaked and ground for fermented batter preparations or cooked as a whole pulse. Its cooked texture is soft and creamy, while the dry seed has a mild earthy, nutty character.
