Hunar SetuHunar Setu is a social initiative that connects skilled artisans and craftsmen with buyers, businesses, and communities that value their work. India’s artisans carry centuries of tradition, culture, and craftsmanship, but many of them struggle to access markets, technology, and fair opportunities. Hunar Setu was created to bridge this gap.https://www.hunarsetu.com/s/62ea2c599d1398fa16dbae0a/676523772eb3cf19c22b9674/hunarsetu1-logo-1--480x480.png

Instructions
Instructions for Use
• Prep: Thoroughly wash and rinse 1 cup of Bundeli Desi Arhar Dal under running water. Soak for 20–30 minutes to reduce cooking time and ensure even texture.
• Cook:
• Pressure Cooker: Add 3 cups of water, a pinch of turmeric, and salt. Pressure cook for 3 to 4 whistles on medium heat until soft and creamy.
• Open Pan: Add 4 cups of water in a deep pan. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, and simmer on medium-low heat for 30–40 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the top.
• Tempering (Tadka): Heat ghee or oil. Add cumin seeds, hing (asafoetida), garlic, onions, tomatoes, and red chilli powder. Pour this over the cooked dal for an authentic desi flavor.
• Serve: Best enjoyed hot paired with steamed basmati rice (Dal Chawal) or traditional Indian flatbreads (Roti).
Precautions & Care
• Allergy Advice: Processed in a facility that handles wheat, nuts, and seeds. May contain trace amounts of gluten.
• Natural Product Disclaimer: As a raw, unpolished agriculture item, it may occasionally contain tiny, natural field pebbles or grit. We recommend a quick manual inspection/sorting before washing.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, immediately transfer to an airtight container (preferably glass or high-quality food-grade plastic) to protect it from moisture and pests.
• Long-Term Freshness: To protect unpolished dals during humid months, you can place a few dry red chillies or clean bay leaves inside the storage container.
