Poha or flattened rice is, without doubt, one of the most favourite breakfast materials of Maharashtrians and Central Indians in general. It is also the main ingredient of the popular Maharashtrian poha dish which is made in lakhs of homes in Mumbai and Pune every day. Prakritii Organics poha is derived from certified chemical-free rice that has been grown with no synthetic pesticides or artificial fertilisers. Besides, the processing of the product has been made without the use of artificial whitening agents or chemical treatments. Most of the poha available in the market is made from rice that has been conventionally grown and may have pesticide residues that could have been transferred during milling and flattening. Our organic poha is thoroughly clean from the very beginning right to the end of the product, so you can cook with it and serve your family in total confidence.

Health Benefits & Nutrition

Among Indian traditional breakfast options, organic poha might be the easiest to digest as it consists of grains. Its structure is so light and flattened that it disintegrates easily in the digestive tract. That's why it's fit for everyone, including children, seniors, and even people with delicate stomachs. It serves as a good source of carbohydrates that are digested quickly, releasing energy gradually and keeping you active without making you feel heavy as other grain-based breakfasts sometimes do. Besides, poha is a naturally gluten-free item, so it is not only a totally safe breakfast but also a very nourishing choice for those who exclude wheat from their diet. Moreover, if you add a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves, and peanuts as is usually done in Maharashtrian kanda poha, you further enhance the dish's nutritional value through the introduction of good fats and protein present in the peanuts.

How to Use & Storage

Keep the poha in an airtight glass or food-grade container and place the container in a cool, dry spot away from moisture and dampness.
Poha readily absorbs moisture and, if exposed to it, will become soggy and unusable. So, never keep it in a damp or humid place.
In proper storage, organic poha retains its qualities for 3 - 6 months.
After rinsing for cooking, use it right away. Don't allow rinsed poha to stand for a long time before cooking.

What is organic poha and how is it made?

Organic poha is flattened rice made by parboiling, flattening, and drying cleaned rice grains - a traditional processing method that produces the thin, flat flakes used in Indian breakfast cooking. Prakritii Organics poha is made from certified chemical-free rice grown without synthetic pesticides and processed without artificial whitening agents or chemical additives.

Is organic poha gluten-free?

Yes - poha is made from rice and is naturally 100% gluten-free, making it a safe breakfast option for people with gluten intolerance or wheat sensitivity. It is one of the most commonly recommended gluten-free breakfast grains in Indian cooking and is suitable for all age groups including children and elderly family members.

How do I prepare organic poha without it becoming soggy?

Place the required amount of poha in a colander and rinse briefly under cold running water for 20–30 seconds - the poha should be moist but not waterlogged. Let it rest for 2–3 minutes before adding to the tempering. Avoid over-rinsing or soaking in water, as excess moisture causes the poha to become mushy during cooking.

How long does organic poha stay fresh after purchase?

Organic poha stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture stays fresh for 3–6 months. Poha absorbs moisture readily - storing in a humid environment causes it to become soft, clumpy, and unusable, so an airtight container is essential particularly during Mumbai's monsoon months.
