Maida / Refined Wheat Flour High in Starch (500g)

Traditional Purity from Organically Grown Natural Maida

Standard commercial Maida is often a product of heavy chemical processing. Manufacturers use synthetic bleaching agents to achieve a stark white color. At Eat Right Basket, we offer a cleaner alternative. Our Natural Maida is refined from the endosperm of the wheat grain without harmful chemical bleachers. Instead, we allow the flour to whiten naturally using atmospheric oxygen. This ensures you get the fine, soft texture needed for gourmet cooking without the chemical residue. Sourced from farms following Satat Sampada’s organic protocols, it is a "clean" refined flour for your special culinary creations.

Why Choose Our Natural Maida?

• Oxygen-Bleached Purity: We strictly avoid synthetic bleaching agents. Our Maida achieves its color naturally. This makes it a safer choice for your family.
• Starch-Rich Energy: With approximately 68% starch by weight, it provides a quick and efficient source of energy for active days.
• No Synthetic Additives: It is free from preservatives, artificial fragrances, and "shine enhancers" commonly found in industrial refined flours.
• Versatile Culinary Performance: Its high starch and fine texture provide the perfect elasticity required for professional-grade baking and traditional snacks.
• Ethical Sourcing: Farmers use traditional Indian practices like Vermicompost and Jivamrit. This ensures no synthetic urea or pesticides are used in the parent grain.

Nutritional Profile

One cup of our Natural Maida provides approximately 496 Calories. This is primarily fueled by 107 grams of carbohydrates. This high-starch profile is balanced by 11 grams of protein. Protein contributes to the gluten structure essential for baking. While the refining process naturally reduces fiber, our Maida still retains about 2 grams of fiber and a minimal 1 gram of fat.

2. Global Favorites: It is ideal for making thin, translucent wrappers for Momos and the perfect base for Pizzas and Pastas.
3. Festive Snacks: Use it to create crispy, golden Samosas, Kachoris, and Puri.
4. Baking Essentials: A clean foundation for Cakes, Pastries, and Biscuits that require a fine, tender crumb.

Storage & Maintenance for Natural Maida

Because our Natural Maida lacks chemical preservatives, it requires proper care to stay fresh.

• Transfer to an airtight container immediately upon opening.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Consume while fresh. Since it is untreated, it is prone to nature’s tiny visitors if stored for too long.
