Black kadala, also known as black chickpeas or kala chana, is a nutrient-dense legume popular in Indian cuisine. A smaller and darker variety compared to yellow chickpeas, black kadala is rich in protein, fiber, and essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and potassium. It is a staple in vegetarian and vegan diets due to its high protein content and serves as an energy-boosting ingredient. Black kadala is often used in curries, stir-fries, and salads, providing a hearty, nutty flavor. Its high fiber content supports digestion and helps regulate blood sugar levels, making it beneficial for weight management and diabetes control. However, individuals with digestive sensitivities may find its high fiber content challenging. Incorporating black kadala into balanced meals ensures both taste and health benefits, promoting sustainable energy and overall well-being.
