Featured Products

Tur dal is probably the most common dal used in Indian homes. Almost everyone has grown up eating it in some form, whether it’s simple dal-rice, varan-bhat, or sambar. It’s basic food, but it’s something people eat almost every day.
At Prakritii Organics, this tur dal comes from farms in Maharashtra where it’s grown without chemical fertilisers or pesticides. The idea is to keep it simple and clean. For people already trying to switch to organic vegetables or looking for better options like organic vegetables in Mumbai or organic vegetables in Pune, choosing a better quality dal is just part of the same change.
One thing people often notice with organic dal is the difference after cooking. It looks cleaner, smells better, and the taste feels more natural. It’s not something very dramatic, but once you start using it regularly, you do notice it.

Health Benefits & Nutrition

Tur dal is a good everyday source of protein, especially for vegetarian meals. It also has fibre, which helps with digestion and keeps you full for longer.
Along with that, it has some basic nutrients like iron and magnesium. Nothing too complicated, just simple food that supports your daily needs.
Because of the protein and fibre combination, it helps in keeping energy levels steady and reduces the need to snack too often. That’s one reason why dal is such an important part of Indian meals.

How to Use & Storage

Tur dal is very easy to cook. You can rinse it, soak it for a bit if you want, and then cook it in a pressure cooker with turmeric. After that, you can make it in different ways depending on what you like.
For a simple meal, just add a basic tempering with ghee, mustard seeds, and curry leaves. For something heavier, you can add onion, tomato, and spices. It’s also used in sambar, khichdi, and other dishes.
It goes well with both rice and roti, which is why it’s used so often.
For storage, keep it in an airtight container in a dry place. It stays good for months if stored properly.

FAQs

Is Prakritii's tur dal sourced from Maharashtra?

Yes. Our organic tur dal is sourced directly from certified chemical-free farms in Maharashtra, where it is grown without synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilisers, or post-harvest fumigants.

Does organic tur dal taste different from regular dal?

Yes — most people notice a cleaner, more pronounced flavour in organic tur dal. The absence of chemical residues and the natural soil health of organic farms produces a lentil with better flavour, cleaner colour when cooked, and a more authentic taste.

Is tur dal a complete protein?

Tur dal is a rich source of plant-based protein but is not a complete protein on its own — it is lower in the amino acid methionine. However, when eaten with rice (as in the traditional dal-rice combination), the amino acid profiles of both foods complement each other perfectly to form a complete protein — which is exactly why this pairing has been a cornerstone of Indian nutrition for thousands of years.

Can I eat tur dal if I have diabetes?

Yes. Tur dal has a low glycaemic index and is high in both protein and fibre — a combination that slows glucose absorption and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. It is one of the most recommended legumes for people managing type 2 diabetes through diet.

How long does organic tur dal keep after purchase?

Stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight, organic tur dal will remain fresh and nutritionally intact for up to 12 months. Cooked dal should be refrigerated and consumed within 2–3 days.
