Chana Daal, also known as split chickpeas, is a staple in Indian cuisine and is cherished for its distinct flavor and versatility. These yellow lentils are made from dried, hulled chickpeas that are split in half, offering a nutty, earthy taste. Rich in protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like B-complex, Chana Daal is a nutritious addition to vegetarian and vegan diets. It’s a good source of iron and magnesium, supporting energy and muscle function. Low in glycemic index, it’s ideal for managing blood sugar levels. However, it can be calorie-dense if cooked with excessive oils or creams common in certain preparations. A great base for soups, curries, and salads, Chana Daal embodies both health and flavor. Its origins trace back to South Asia, where it has been a cherished ingredient in traditional dishes for centuries.
