About Horse gram dal
Horse Gram Dal, a staple in South Indian and rural Indian cuisine, is a powerhouse of nutrition. Derived from horse gram, a legume known as Macrotyloma uniflorum, it is rich in protein, dietary fiber, iron, calcium, and antioxidants. Naturally low in fat, it is prized for its ability to aid digestion and promote heart health. Horse Gram Dal is often included in weight management regimens due to its high protein and fiber content, which promote satiety. It has traditionally been used in India for its purported ability to help manage diabetes and kidney stones. This dal is most commonly prepared as a hearty soup, stew, or chutney and features earthy, nutty flavors. While healthy, moderate consumption is recommended as horse gram contains certain anti-nutrients like tannins and phytates, which can impact mineral absorption when over-consumed. A true superfood, Horse Gram Dal is both nutritious and a part of culinary history.
