This 2kg bag of Indus Urid Dal Washed is a good size for households who cook dal or South Indian dishes regularly, lasting through several weeks of home cooking. It is a store-cupboard staple that keeps well when sealed and stored in a cool, dry place. Urid dal washed is the skinned and split form of black gram, pale cream in colour with a smooth texture once cooked. It softens down into a thick, creamy dal when simmered with water and spices, making it a natural choice for a simple urid dal curry served with rice or roti. In real home kitchens, this pulse is soaked and ground to make batters for idli and dosa, giving them their characteristic soft texture and mild flavour. It also works well in dal makhani style dishes, where it is cooked slowly until thick and combined with other pulses. Soaking the dal for a few hours before cooking helps it cook more evenly and reduces cooking time on the hob. Once opened, the pack should be kept in an airtight container to maintain its quality, and any unused portion can be measured out as needed for each recipe. This makes it easy to use a little at a time across different meals throughout the week.
