Masoor Kali

Description

Masoor Kali, whole black lentils, carries a deeper, more intense flavour profile than the more familiar red masoor, with a richness that comes specifically from cooking the lentil in its whole, unhulled form. Hariom Masoor Kali is sourced as premium-quality black lentils, prized for their dense, creamy texture once cooked and a deep earthy taste that holds up beautifully against bold spices.

Nutritionally, whole black lentils retain more of the seed coat than their split, polished counterparts, which translates into a meaningfully higher fibre content alongside the protein and iron that lentils are generally known for.

This fibre supports healthy digestion and contributes to a feeling of fullness that makes masoor kali a satisfying, substantial addition to any vegetarian thali. Its dark, glossy appearance and rich flavour have also made it a favoured choice in restaurant-style dal preparations across North India.
