About Urad dal
Urad Dal, also known as Split Black Gram, is a staple pulse in South Asian cuisine, particularly Indian cooking. Known for its earthy flavor and creamy texture, it plays a central role in dishes like dals, idlis, and dosas. Nutritionally, urad dal is a powerhouse of protein, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. It is also rich in dietary fiber, which aids digestion, and contains essential nutrients such as iron, magnesium, and potassium, supporting overall health.
