Product Description:

Introducing Chettinad Batter Point's Hand-Pounded Rice (Ponni) or Kaikuthal Rice, a nutritious choice packed with carbohydrates, protein, and vital nutrients. Immerse yourself in the unique aroma and flavor of hand-pounded rice, crafted using age-old milling techniques.

Distinct from machine-processed rice, hand-pounded rice retains its nutritional integrity as the bran remains more intact. This rice variety offers a rich source of carbohydrates and forms an essential component of a balanced diet, boasting a delightful taste that serves as an excellent alternative to white rice.

TRADITIONAL PROCESS: Generations ago, hand-pounded rice was the norm, with grains husked using stone mortars and wooden pestles, followed by winnowing. This technique preserves the bran, resulting in minimal polishing and ensuring the retention of nutrients, making hand-pounded rice one of the healthiest rice options worldwide.

HEALTHY CHOICE: Chettinad Batter Point's Ponni Kaikuthal Rice or Ponni Hand-Pounded Rice (Ponni Boiled) stands out as an exemplary option for maintaining cholesterol levels and promoting overall well-being. Versatile in cooking, it can be utilized in various rice dishes, offering a healthier substitute for regular polished rice.

NUTRIENT-RICH: Hand-pounded rice is abundant in essential nutrients, including fiber, protein, and iron. With the highest fiber content among rice varieties, it aids digestion and is rich in manganese, which supports a healthy nervous system.
