- Is Aashirvaad atta good for soft chapatis?
- Yes. It is a chakki-ground whole wheat atta made for flatbreads, and most owners report soft, pliable chapatis. Rest the dough briefly and roll gently for the best result.
- How is it different from all-purpose flour?
- It is unrefined whole wheat with no maida, so it has more fiber and a fuller wheat flavor. All-purpose flour is more elastic and rises better for cakes and breads.
- Does it contain gluten?
- Yes. It is whole wheat, so it contains wheat and gluten. It is not suitable for anyone on a gluten-free diet.
- What can I make with it besides chapatis?
- It works for parathas, puris and other Indian flatbreads. It is not a good substitute for cake or bread flour because it has less gluten strength.
- How should I store it?
- Keep it in a cool, dry place. Once the bag is opened, transfer the flour to an airtight container to keep it fresh and free of moisture.
- Is it whole grain and unrefined?
- Yes. It is milled from whole wheat and is unrefined, with no maida added.
