Two Brothers Sprouted Rajgira Atta versus other amaranth flours
| What to compare | Purepicked | Regular amaranth flour |
|---|---|---|
| Ingredient list | 100% Rajgira, sprouted before milling | Usually unsprouted, may include blends not clearly declared |
| Processing | Soaked, sprouted ~24h, sun-dried, stone-ground | Typically roller-milled only |
| Additives | None | May include anti-caking agents |
Is It For You?
Good for
Vrat/fasting-day rotis, parathas and pooris
Halwa and other traditional sweets
Those wanting a plant-based protein and fibre source
Households preferring single-ingredient, minimally processed flours
Avoid if
Wheat, seed or nut allergies (made in a facility that processes these)
How to use
Combine with boiled potato for gluten-free rotis, parathas or pooris
Blend with wheat atta for everyday chapatis, or use to make rajgira halwa and other vrat sweets
Knead in small batches — amaranth has no gluten, so dough is less elastic than wheat
What to look for in Rajgira Atta?
Maida is the cheapest filler in any atta. If it appears on the ingredient list at all, part of what you are paying for is refined flour.
Stone-ground (chakki) flour keeps the germ and bran. Roller-milled flour usually does not. The pack should say which.
Unbleached flour is off-white and slightly uneven. A bright, uniform white usually means bleaching or heavy refining.
Whole flours go rancid faster because the germ is still in there. Buy a size you will finish in a couple of months.
