About Uppam
Uppam, also known as Appam, is a traditional South Indian dish often enjoyed as a breakfast item. Made primarily from fermented rice and urad dal batter, its preparation includes a process of soaking, grinding, and fermentation to achieve its light and fluffy texture. Coconut milk is occasionally added, enhancing its flavor and nutritional profile. Uppam is a gluten-free dish, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities. The fermentation process promotes gut health by introducing beneficial probiotics. Typically cooked with minimal oil, it offers a low-fat option in many diets. However, pairing Uppam with rich curries may increase calorie and fat content, depending on the accompaniments. High in carbohydrates, it provides sustained energy, but moderation is key for those mindful of calorie intake. Uppam reflects the simplicity and wholesomeness of South Indian cuisine, celebrating balance and nutrition in everyday meals.
