Myth about the super food sattu

Myth about the super food!

For those who have been acquainted with the concept of Sattu, they must have heard "Thand me Sattu Pi rhe ho?" or "Sattu is for summers no?

Well, let us help you understand why this a myth not a reality.

First thing first, What is Sattu? 

One of the most indigenous Protein sources of India, Sattu is roasted gram powder, made by dry roasting gram, primarily Bengal gram in the sand and then pounding this roasting gram into a powder. 

Why is it Unique

It is surprising to know that its prepping process does no harm to gram's original properties, rather keeps the nutritional values in place. Plus, it is high on insoluble fiber which makes it great for your intestine.

Why consuming Sattu in winter is a pure myth?

Sattu is popularly consumed in forms of parathas during the chilly winters of India. If you travel to Bihar and UP during the winter, you are sure to be captivated by the aroma of  "litti chokha" & "Sattu ka Paratha". It is said that consuming Sattu ka Paratha during winter keeps the body warm and fulfills its requirement of Protein. 

Tips to consume Sattuz in Winter

Yes, you heard it right. The best way to stay healthy and keep winter illness at Bay is by having a glass full of Sattuz with a dash of turmeric every night before bed. 

Well we call it a delicious dose of energy and fun.

Indulge into a warm Choco affair
