🌾 Traditional Bansi Wheat – Wholesome Goodness from the Grain

Tazawan Bansi Desi Whole Wheat is a traditional wheat variety appreciated for its characteristic grain, earthy aroma and suitability for everyday Indian cooking.

Unlike refined wheat flour (maida), whole wheat retains the bran, germ and endosperm of the grain. These naturally occurring grain components contribute dietary fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals.

Bansi wheat is traditionally used for preparing chapatis, rotis, phulkas, parathas and other homemade wheat-based preparations.

At Tazawan, we value traditional food grains and aim to bring wholesome ingredients closer to families while maintaining transparency about sourcing and processing.

👩🍳 Preparation Tips

1. 🌾 Fresh Milling

If purchasing whole wheat grains, grind them into flour using a suitable flour mill. Whole wheat flour retains the bran and germ when the entire grain is milled.

2. 💧 Dough Preparation

Add water gradually while kneading until the dough becomes soft and pliable.

3. ⏱️ Resting Time

Allow the dough to rest for approximately 15–20 minutes before preparing chapatis.

4. 🔥 Cooking

Cook on a properly heated tawa, turning as needed until the chapati is cooked evenly.

💡 Tazawan Tip: Adjust water quantity according to the flour's texture and freshness. Different wheat varieties absorb water differently.
