Description

TRS Besan (Chickpea Flour)

TRS Besan Flour is a premium quality chickpea flour made from carefully selected, finely milled chickpeas. It is a must-have ingredient in Indian kitchens and is loved for its rich nutrition, versatility, and mild nutty flavour.

Besan, also known as gram flour or chickpea flour, is widely used in traditional Indian recipes such as pakora, besan chilla, methi thepla, and sweets like ladoo, barfi, and halwa. It also works beautifully as a natural thickening agent for soups and gravies, and is a popular choice in gluten-free baking.

Chickpea flour is:

• High in plant-based protein

• Rich in fibre – supports digestion

• Naturally gluten-free

• Low glycaemic – helps maintain stable blood sugar

Beyond cooking, besan is also used in natural skincare, especially as a face mask for glowing and healthy skin.

TRS ensures premium quality through strict selection and fine milling, giving you a healthy and natural alternative to regular flour.
