Brown gram is a classic Indian dal that has been forgotten. It is very nutrient-dense and rich in protein, fibre, antioxidants, polyphenols, and flavonoids.
In south India, it is a key ingredient as an Uzhunnu in most of their main dishes like Idly, Dosa, Vada, etc. This pulse crop is well-known in north India as Black/Kali/Maa Ki Dal.
Chickpeas are a nutrient-dense source of fibre, vitamins, and minerals that may help with weight management, better digestion, and a lower risk of disease.
Soybeans are among the best sources of protein; in fact, they are often used in instead of meat. The high protein content, strong antioxidant levels, vitamins, minerals, and insoluble fibre of soybeans are just a few of its key benefits.
