Gram Flour
Virani Gram Flour is the masterful distillation of heritage, technical excellence and purity into a single golden powder.
Milled and packed exclusively in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire since 1973, the flour has remained under the passionate and watchful eye of our founder throughout.
Technology has evolved over the last half century, as has legislation, especially on contaminants, allergens and labelling. Virani gram flour has fully kept pace with such changes, leading the pack to maintain its position as the country’s favourite gram flour.
Of course, one aspect of the flour has not changed at all and that is the recipe. Virani gram flour has always been milled from just one single ingredient: specially sourced top grade desi chickpeas which have been cleaned, decorticated, split, recleaned and then cleaned again just before milling.
A staple ingredient of every Asian (and beyond) kitchen cupboard, our gram flour is used by home cooks and professional chefs alike. It is ideal for making savoury, crunch snacks such as sev and ganthias, steamed delicacies such as dhokri and traditional sweets such as boondi. Gram flour is also well known as the batter for pakoras and bhajis.
Our acclaimed cookbook, The Flavours of Gujarat, contains more ideas of how to use gram flour in traditional recipes.
