About Cooked black channa

Cooked Black Channa, commonly known as kala chana, is a nutrient-dense legume originating from Indian cuisine. These small, dark brown chickpeas are a staple in various traditional dishes and are prized for their earthy flavor and versatility. Rich in protein and dietary fiber, black channa supports muscle health and aids in digestion, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. It is also a good source of essential vitamins and minerals like iron, potassium, and folate, contributing to energy production and overall wellness. Black channa has a low glycemic index, making it beneficial for blood sugar management. However, for individuals watching their sodium intake, preparation methods and added seasonings should be considered. Typically boiled or pressure-cooked, black channa is a wholesome ingredient that can be enjoyed in salads, curries, or roasted as a snack for a hearty and satisfying addition to any meal.
