Product Description
Discover the golden standard of Indian pulses with FitTree’s Premium Unpolished Toor Dal (also known as Arhar Dal or Split Pigeon Peas). Sourced directly from the fertile fields of India’s top pulse-growing regions (Maharashtra and Karnataka), our dal is processed with care to retain its natural goodness. Unlike polished varieties that are stripped of nutrients for shine, our unpolished Toor Dal preserves the outer layer, ensuring you get maximum protein, dietary fiber, and an authentic, nutty flavor in every bite.
Whether you are crafting a comforting Dal Tadka, a spicy South Indian Sambar, or a wholesome Khichdi, our Toor Dal cooks down to a perfect, creamy consistency that binds flavors beautifully. Free from artificial colors and preservatives, this is the healthy, farm-fresh dal your family deserves.
