India's most widely eaten millet — sprouted to unlock its protein and cold milled to preserve every B vitamin. Jowar has been a staple of the Deccan plateau for 3000 years, and this is its most nutritious form.

Why Sprouted and Cold Milled?

Jowar (sorghum) contains a protein called kafirin which, in its natural state, is resistant to digestion — only 46% of its protein is usable by the body when eaten unsprouted. Sprouting breaks down kafirin structures and activates enzymes that improve protein digestibility by up to 35%, making the nutritional value of the grain far more realisable. Cold milling then ensures the heat-sensitive B vitamins, antioxidants, and natural oils are preserved — conventional stone-milling and roller milling generate heat that damages these nutrients.

Key Benefits

  • Gluten-free — a safe wheat substitute for coeliac and gluten-sensitive individuals
  • 24% daily iron per 100g — meaningful contribution to daily iron needs
  • 165mg magnesium — supports sleep quality, muscle function, and heart rhythm
  • High niacin (B3) — 3.7mg per 100g, supports energy metabolism and skin health
  • Improved protein digestibility — sprouting increases usable protein by up to 35%
  • 7g dietary fibre — feeds gut microbiome and supports digestive regularity
  • Traditional digestive grain — lighter on the stomach than wheat for many people

How to Use

  • Jowar roti / bhakri — knead with hot water, roll thin, cook dry on tawa
  • Use in gluten-free dosas and pancakes
  • Mix with other flours for gluten-free baking (bread, muffins, cookies)
  • Make jowar porridge — similar to polenta or upma
  • Use as a coating for fried or baked snacks
  • Blend into smoothies or health drinks for added fibre

Frequently Asked Questions

What does cold milling mean?

Cold milling means the flour is ground at a controlled low temperature, unlike conventional mills where friction generates heat up to 80–100°C. High heat destroys heat-sensitive nutrients including B vitamins, antioxidants, and natural oils. Cold milling preserves these intact, resulting in a nutritionally superior flour.

Can jowar roti be made as soft as wheat roti?

Jowar roti (bhakri) is traditionally thicker and firmer than wheat roti — it has a different texture profile. To make it softer, knead with boiling water and keep covered with a damp cloth while rolling. Adding a small amount of our sprouted wheat flour (5–10%) can help with binding if desired.

Is jowar suitable for diabetics?

Yes — jowar has a moderate glycaemic index (around 62) that is improved further in sprouted form. Its high fibre content slows starch digestion. Jowar rotis are a traditional part of diabetic diets across Maharashtra and Karnataka.

How is jowar different from bajra?

Both are millets, but from different plants. Jowar (sorghum) has a milder, more neutral flavour and is typically easier to digest. Bajra (pearl millet) has a stronger earthy flavour and is higher in fat and iron. Both are gluten-free and nutritionally excellent.
