Red Poha is made from indigenous red rice, which gets its deep color from anthocyanin, a natural flavonoid known for its antioxidant properties. Compared to white poha, red poha is less processed and retains more fibre, B-vitamins, and minerals, making it a nutrient-dense and satisfying option for daily meals.
With a medium thickness and delicate width, it cooks quickly while maintaining a pleasant bite.
