Gujarat is a state in northwestern India. This region is referred to as the melting pot of the nation. Multiculturalism and diversity are celebrated in this region. Consisting of Buddhist, Muslim, and Hindu populations, Gujarat is united by culinary traditions. Epitomized by the many variances of dhokla. My personal favorite being the rava dhokla, a staple breakfast and tea time snack for many people of all backgrounds. Make sure to pack some rava dhokla in your Vaya Food Storage Container to share with all the people you care about!
Health Benefits
Fermented foods are easy to digest and packed full of vitamins and minerals. Dhokla is already a protein and iron dense flour, but the fermenting process makes it easier process both in your body. Lactic acid bacteria in fermented foods also alters the PH balance in your body, which is associated with good health. Rich in dietary fiber, dhokla flour keeps your digestive system flowing and regular. It is also a low-calorie snack making it great for maintaining a healthy body weight. Dhokla has even been shown to lower your cholesterol, making it incredibly heart healthy.
