For centuries, the remote hills of Uttarakhand have safeguarded a culinary treasure: Pahaadi Millets. These resilient ancient grains, cultivated by generations of Himalayan farmers, are now reclaiming global attention as nutritional powerhouses. Our Pahaadi Millet Collection celebrates this revival, offering organic, sustainably harvested millets that blend ancestral wisdom with modern wellness. From protein-packed Jhangora Millet (Barnyard Millet) to iron-rich Kodo, each grain tells a story of soil, altitude, and tradition.
Why Pahaadi Millets? The Himalayan Edge
Unlike conventional grains, Uttarakhand Millets thrive in harsh mountain climates without synthetic inputs. Their adaptation to high altitudes (1,500–3,000 meters) results in concentrated nutrients:
-
3× More Fiber: Promotes digestion and gut health.
-
Low Glycemic Index: Ideal for diabetics (GI 45-55 vs. rice’s 73).
-
Climate Resilience: Requires 70% less water than wheat.
