You will love our PhoolMakhana-Here's why:
Phoolmakhana, also known as Indian Lotus seed or Foxnuts, comes from the lotus plant which grows in the swampy regions of India. The seeds are small but have a nutty flavor and crunchy texture similar to other nuts such as almonds and walnuts. Phoolmakhana has been consumed in India for years and has recently gained popularity in the U.S. They are an important ingredient in Indian cuisine, and you can find them in both savory and sweet dishes. They're small, greenish-gray balls, similar to beans but without the internal slit. In India, it is common to use Phoolmakhana as roasted nuts which can be consumed as an in-between-meal snack. It is also a very good option for people observing Navratri fast, Shivratri fast, Janmashtami fast, and all other sorts of fasting which allow nuts to be consumed in your fasting meal.
