Swadesi Way’s Kapli Whole Wheat Atta is made from ancient Khapli (Emmer) wheat and slowly stone ground in small batches to retain its natural nutrition, fiber, and earthy flavour.
Khapli (Emmer) wheat, one of India’s traditional wheat varieties that has been cultivated for generations and is known for its nutty flavor. It is valued for its rich taste, better digestibility, and naturally lower gluten structure compared to modern wheat.
Farm to Plate Journey
This Khapli wheat is grown by farmers supported by Gramya Ventures, which works to strengthen farmer livelihoods while preserving traditional crop varieties.
The process is simple:
- Indigenous Khapli wheat selected for local growing conditions
- Cultivated using bio-resource-based farming practices
- Supported through farmer training and guidance
- Cleaned, graded, and sorted at village-level units
- Slowly stone-ground in small batches
No polishing. No unnecessary processing.
Just traditionally grown wheat milled with care.
Storage Tips
- Store in an airtight container
- Keep in a cool, dry place
- Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture
- Best before: 3 months
What to Expect
Khapli flour absorbs more water than regular wheat flour due to its naturally high fibre content. The dough may feel softer and benefits from a little extra resting time before rolling. This helps create softer rotis and brings out the grain’s natural texture and flavour.
Packaging Note
Our eco-friendly packaging is moisture-sensitive. Please transfer the atta to an airtight container soon after receiving it to maintain freshness and quality.
