Udhaiyam Green Peas refers to the premium, dried and split whole green peas (often called vatana) produced by the well-known Indian grocery brand Udhaiyam. Highly valued for their natural, earthy flavor, they are a staple ingredient in a variety of traditional dishes, including curries, chaats, and soups.
Key Characteristics
- Brand Quality: Udhaiyam is recognized for its stringent quality standards, frequently cleaning and sorting its pulses with advanced technology to ensure they are free from impurities.
- Nutritional Value: Green peas are naturally cholesterol-free and packed with protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins, making them a healthy addition to a balanced diet.
