Description

Bansi is a traditional variety of Durum wheat, derived from domesticated hulled Emmer wheat. Known for its rich flavor and nutritional value, this heirloom wheat variety has been cultivated for centuries. Unlike modern Durum wheat varieties, Bansi retains its natural structure, making it less elastic due to a weaker gluten network. This characteristic makes Bansi an excellent choice for pasta, semolina, and traditional Indian rotis. Its hard endosperm contributes to a unique texture and rich protein content, offering a wholesome and digestible alternative to modern wheat varieties.
