FAQ's - Heritage Rice

• +
  What makes organic rice different from regular rice?

  Organic rice is grown without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or chemical inputs, relying instead on natural farming methods that preserve soil health and biodiversity. This results in grains with better nutrient retention and minimal risk of chemical residue compared to conventionally grown rice.
  

• +
  Which organic rice variety is best for biryani or pulao?

  Organic Basmati Rice is the ideal choice for biryani and pulao thanks to its long, aromatic grains that stay separate and fluffy after cooking. For South Indian dishes like biryani or ghee rice, Jeerakasala (Jeeraga Samba) is a popular short-grain alternative.
  

• +
  Are black and red rice healthier than white rice?

  Yes, black and red rice are richer in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which give them their distinct color and offer benefits like heart health support. They also retain more fiber and micronutrients since they're less processed than polished white rice.

• +
  How should I store organic rice to keep it fresh longer?

  Store organic rice in a cool, dry place inside airtight containers to prevent moisture and pest exposure. For long-term storage, especially with sprouted or red/black rice varieties, refrigeration or freezing helps preserve freshness and nutrient quality.

• +
  How do I check if the organic rice I'm buying online is genuine?

  Look for valid organic certification labels (such as India Organic or NPOP), a clear harvest or pack date, and properly sealed packaging with a moisture barrier. The rice should also have a clean, aromatic smell with no off-odors and visually clear, intact grains.

FAQ's - Shridhanya Millets

• +
  Which Siridhanya millets are considered the best?

  The combo's five best Siridhanya millets are Foxtail (protein, heart health), Barnyard (low GI, diabetic-friendly), Kodo (antioxidants, digestion), Little (iron & minerals), and Brown Top (rare, detoxifying).

• +
  What is Siridhanya called in English?

  Siridhanya (Shridhanya) is often called "positive millets" in English. It refers to five ancient, nutrient-dense grains — Foxtail, Barnyard, Kodo, Little, and Brown Top millet.

  
  

• +
  What are Siridhanya millets?

  Siridhanya millets are five ancient, nutrient-dense grains — Foxtail, Barnyard, Kodo, Little, and Brown Top — sold unpolished to retain maximum fiber, minerals, and authentic taste.

• +
  Are Siridhanya millets unpolished?

  Yes, this combo is 100% unpolished and natural. Unlike polished grains, unpolished millets preserve their bran layer, retaining more fiber, iron, magnesium, and essential vitamins.

• +
  What are the benefits of Siridhanya millet?

  Siridhanya millets support digestion, help manage blood sugar, boost immunity and energy, aid weight management, and strengthen heart and bone health — while being gluten-free.

Black rice

• +
  Why does black rice turn the cooking water purple?

  The deep purple cooking water is anthocyanin — the water-soluble antioxidant pigment concentrated in the black rice bran. Anthocyanins are the same class of compound that makes blueberries blue and red cabbage purple. They leach freely into water during rinsing and cooking. Rinsing water runs dark purple and cooking water turns deep purple — both are completely normal and are simply the bran pigment releasing. The purple cooking water is edible and nutritious.
  

• +
  How is black rice different from red rice and brown rice?

  All three are unpolished heritage rice varieties with bran intact. Brown rice — bran is tan/golden; fibre, B vitamins, and minerals but no significant anthocyanins. Red rice (Himalayan Red, Rajamudi, Kerala Red) — bran is reddish-brown; some anthocyanins plus proanthocyanidins. Black rice — bran is deep purple-black; highest anthocyanin concentration of the three, specifically cyanidin-3-glucoside. All three have significantly more fibre, B vitamins, and minerals than polished white rice. For anthocyanin content specifically, black rice is the superior choice
  

• +
  Is black rice gluten-free?

  Yes — all rice varieties, including black rice, are naturally gluten-free. Rice does not contain gluten, gliadin, or related prolamins. However, cross-contamination can occur if black rice is processed in a facility that also handles wheat or gluten-containing grains. If managing coeliac disease or clinical gluten sensitivity and requiring a certified gluten-free product, verify with Rootz whether this black rice is processed in a dedicated gluten-free facility before purchase.
  

Palm Jaggery

• +
  What is the difference between palm jaggery and regular sugarcane jaggery?

  Regular jaggery is made from sugarcane juice. Palm jaggery is made from the sap of the Palmyra palm tree (Borassus flabellifer), which takes 15–20 years to reach tapping maturity. The sap is collected from the cut flower bud before sunrise and must be processed the same morning due to rapid fermentation. Palm jaggery has a notably deeper flavour profile — complex caramel, slightly earthy, with a faint smokiness — compared to the plainer sweetness of sugarcane jaggery. Palm jaggery also retains higher potassium (~1056mg/100g vs ~300mg/100g in sugarcane jaggery) and iron. Known as Karupatti in Tamil Nadu and Nattu Sakkarai across South India.

• +
  Is sattu gluten-free and suitable for vegans?

  Yes — sattu is made from gram (a legume), so it is naturally gluten-free and plant-based, making it suitable for both gluten-free and vegan diets. Note that some traditional recipes, such as stuffed parathas, mix sattu with wheat flour — for a fully gluten-free use, keep it to drinks, smoothies and laddoos.
  

• +
  How do I make a sattu drink?

  How to Prepare Sattu Drink: Mix 2 tablespoons of sattu atta with a glass of chilled water or buttermilk and whisk well until smooth. For a traditional savoury sattu drink, add a pinch of salt, roasted cumin powder, black salt, and a squeeze of lemon for a refreshing flavour. For a sweeter version, mix with jaggery or honey according to taste. A popular summer beverage across India, sattu sharbat is especially enjoyed in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and other parts of North India as a refreshing and nourishing traditional drink.

• +
  What is sattu atta?

FAQ's - Shridhanya Unpolished Millets

• +
  How is Siridhanya different from rice?

  Siridhanya millets are unpolished and retain their fiber-rich bran layer, unlike polished rice which loses most nutrients during processing. They have a lower glycemic index than rice, digest more slowly, and offer higher iron, magnesium, and antioxidant content per serving.
  

• +
  What are the five Siridhanya millets?

  The five Siridhanya millets are Foxtail, Barnyard, Kodo, Little, and Brown Top millet. Each is unpolished and nutrient-dense — Foxtail is protein-rich, Barnyard is diabetic-friendly, Kodo is antioxidant-rich, Little Millet is iron-rich, and Brown Top supports detoxification.
  

• +
  Which Siridhanya is good for weight loss?

  Little Millet and Barnyard Millet are especially good for weight loss, as both are high in fiber and have a low glycemic index, keeping you fuller for longer. Including any of the five Siridhanya millets regularly can support healthy weight management.
  

• +
  How to use Siridhanya millets?

  Siridhanya millets can be cooked like rice or used to prepare upma, pongal, pulao, khichdi, dosas, or rotis. They work well as a daily rice substitute and can be soaked before cooking for a softer texture.
  

A2 Bilona Ghee

• +
  What is the Bilona method and why does it make ghee better?

  The Bilona method is a traditional Ayurvedic process of making ghee that begins by culturing full-fat A2 milk into curd, then hand-churning the curd to extract white butter, and finally simmering that butter slowly into ghee. Unlike the more common cream-separator method used in commercial ghee production, the Bilona method retains more of the natural fat-soluble vitamins, butyric acid, and omega-3 fatty acids from the original milk. It is more labour-intensive and produces a smaller yield, which is why Bilona ghee is priced higher — but the nutritional and flavour difference is significant. 
  

• +
  Is A2 ghee from Rootz Organics suitable for people with lactose intolerance?

  Yes. During the ghee-making process, milk solids (which contain lactose and casein) are removed when butter is simmered and strained. The result is a product that is both lactose-free and casein-free, making it suitable for most people with dairy sensitivities. Our A2 Desi Cow Ghee is made exclusively from A2 beta-casein milk, which is also associated with easier digestion compared to A1 varieties. If you have a severe dairy allergy, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use. Yes. 
  

• +
  What is the smoke point of A2 cow ghee and can it be used for high-heat cooking?

  A2 Desi Cow Ghee has a high smoke point of approximately 250°C (480°F), which makes it one of the most stable cooking fats for high-heat applications including deep frying, sautéing, roasting, and baking. Unlike refined vegetable oils or butter, ghee does not break down into harmful compounds at high temperatures. This makes it a safe and flavourful choice for everyday Indian cooking — from tempering spices to preparing rotis and biryanis. 
  

FAQ's - Organic Raisin Black

• +
  Which brand is best for black raisins?

  Look for a brand offering 100% certified organic black raisins, free from added sugar, preservatives, and synthetic chemicals. Rootz Organics sources its black raisins from trusted farmer groups, ensuring natural sweetness and purity in every batch.

• +
  What is the best time to eat black raisins?

  Black raisins are best eaten in the morning on an empty stomach, ideally soaked overnight for easier digestion and better nutrient absorption. They also make a great mid-afternoon snack to curb sugar cravings naturally.

• +
  Which color raisins are healthiest?

  Black raisins generally contain more antioxidants and iron than golden or green raisins, as they're sun-dried without added sulphur. All raisin varieties offer good nutrition, but black raisins are often preferred for their higher mineral content and natural sweetness.

• +
  Should I wash raisins before eating?

  Yes, rinsing raisins briefly under water before eating helps remove any surface dust or residue from drying and packaging. This is especially recommended if you plan to soak them overnight before consumption.

FAQ's - Rajamudi Rice

• +
  What is special about Rajamudi rice?

  Rajamudi rice is a rare heirloom red rice once reserved for the royal Wadiyars of Mysore. Unpolished and minimally processed, it retains its natural fiber, antioxidants, and earthy flavor, making it a nutritious heritage grain rooted in Karnataka's culinary tradition.

• +
  Can we eat Rajamudi rice daily?

  Yes, Rajamudi rice can be eaten daily as part of a balanced diet. Its high fiber content supports digestion and regular bowel movements, while its low glycemic index provides steady energy, making it a wholesome everyday alternative to polished white rice.
  

• +
  Should we soak Rajamudi rice before cooking?

  Yes, soaking Rajamudi rice for 20–30 minutes before cooking is recommended. Since it's unpolished and fiber-rich, soaking softens the grains, reduces cooking time, and helps achieve a more even, tender texture once cooked.
  

• +
  Can diabetics eat Rajamudi rice?

  Rajamudi rice has a low glycemic index and complex carbohydrates that release energy slowly, making it a suitable rice alternative for those managing blood sugar. However, diabetics should consult their doctor to determine portion sizes that fit their individual needs.
  

FAQ's - Organic Parboiled Rice

• +
  Which brand of parboiled rice is best?

  Look for a brand offering 100% certified organic parboiled rice with no polishing or chemical processing. Rootz Organics sources its parboiled rice to retain natural nutrients while staying light on digestion, making it a reliable choice for daily, wholesome meals.

• +
  What is the difference between rice and parboiled rice?

  Regular white rice is milled and polished, stripping away nutrients from the husk. Parboiled rice is partially boiled in its husk before milling, which locks in vitamins and minerals, giving it a firmer texture and a lower tendency to cause acidity.

• +
  Is parboiled rice healthier than normal rice?

  Yes, parboiled rice generally retains more nutrients than polished white rice due to the parboiling process. It's also gentler on digestion, helps reduce acidity, and provides more sustained energy, making it a healthier everyday staple for most people.
  

• +
  What is the Indian name for parboiled rice?

  Parboiled rice is commonly known as "Ukda Chawal" in Hindi and "Puzhungal Arisi" in Tamil. It's a traditional staple across many Indian households, especially in South and East India, valued for its digestibility and nutrient retention.

FAQ's - Organic Sesame Seeds Black

• +
  What are organic black sesame seeds good for?

  Organic black sesame seeds are rich in calcium, iron, and antioxidants, supporting bone strength, healthy hemoglobin levels, and skin nourishment. They're also valued in Ayurveda for boosting immunity and aiding digestion when added to daily meals, chutneys, or homemade laddoos.
  

• +
  Which brand of black sesame seeds is best?

  Look for a brand offering 100% certified organic sesame seeds, sourced directly from organic farmer groups and grown without synthetic pesticides or GMOs. Rootz Organics sources its black sesame seeds this way, ensuring purity, traceability, and consistent quality in every batch.
  

• +
  Can I eat black sesame every day?

  Yes, 1-2 teaspoons of black sesame seeds daily is generally safe and beneficial for most people, providing steady mineral and antioxidant intake. As with any seed, moderation is key, and those with allergies or specific health conditions should consult a doctor first.
  

• +
  What is the difference between black and normal sesame seeds?

  Black sesame seeds retain their outer husk, giving them a stronger, nuttier flavour and higher antioxidant content than white sesame seeds, which are hulled. Both are nutritious, but black sesame is often preferred in Ayurvedic and traditional wellness preparations for its concentrated mineral profile.
  

• +
  Why does black sesame have so much more calcium than white sesame?

  The significant calcium difference comes from the husk. Black sesame seeds are sold with their outer husk intact, which contains the majority of the calcium — approximately 975mg per 100g. White sesame seeds are hulled (husk removed), leaving approximately 131mg per 100g — less than 14% of the black sesame value. 100g of black sesame provides more calcium than 100g of most dairy products.
  

• +
  What are sesamin and sesamolin — and why do they matter?

  Sesamin and sesamolin are two lignans found almost exclusively in sesame seeds, with the highest concentrations in the husk and bran fraction. They are notably absent or minimal in hulled white sesame. Published research has examined sesamin for antioxidant activity, hepatoprotective effects, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, and effects on cholesterol metabolism. These are not approved health claims — they are what the research has examined.
  

• +
  How should I use black sesame seeds in everyday cooking?

  Toast lightly first — 30–45 seconds in a dry pan over medium heat. Scatter over grain bowls, salads, noodle dishes, avocado toast, yoghurt bowls. Press into bread or focaccia before baking. Blend into black tahini paste. Crust fish or tofu before pan-searing. For desserts: stir paste into ice cream or panna cotta. 1 tablespoon per serving is the typical culinary amount.
  

govindbhog rice

• +
  How do I cook and store Govindbhog rice?

  Rinse the rice two to three times, soak for 15 to 20 minutes for the best texture, then cook in about twice its volume of water — or in milk for desserts. Store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture, using a dry spoon to scoop
  

• +
  Is Govindbhog rice gluten-free, and what can I make with it?

  Yes — rice is naturally gluten-free. Govindbhog is especially good for kheer and other rice puddings, khichdi, ghee rice and vegetable pulao, and it works well for everyday meals served with curries and dals. It's prized wherever a soft, fragrant, slightly sweet grain is wanted.
  

• +
  How is Govindbhog different from basmati rice?

  Govindbhog is shorter and softer than basmati, with a stickier grain, a rounder shape and a sweeter, more buttery aroma, and it cooks a little faster. Basmati has long, separate grains suited to biryani; Govindbhog suits softer dishes and desserts where a fragrant, tender grain is wanted.
  

• +
  What is Govindbhog rice?

  Govindbhog is a short-grain aromatic rice variety traditionally grown in West Bengal, India. It's known for its sweet fragrance, soft and slightly sticky texture, and naturally sweet, buttery taste, which make it a favourite for desserts like kheer as well as khichdi, pulao and everyday meals.
  

FAQ's - Organic Sprouted Flour

• +
  Is sprouted flour better for you?

  Yes, sprouting activates enzymes that boost nutrient absorption and break down anti-nutrients like phytic acid. Rootz Organics' sprouted flours retain natural fiber and minerals, offering easier digestion and higher nutritional value than regular refined flour, making them a smarter everyday choice.
  

• +
  What is sprouted flour?

  Sprouted flour is made by germinating whole grains before milling, which unlocks enzymes and nutrients naturally. Rootz Organics sources NPOP-certified organic grains, sprouts them traditionally, and stone-grinds them into clean-label, chemical-free flour rich in fiber, protein, and minerals.
  

• +
  How to use sprouted flour?

  Use sprouted flour just like regular flour — for rotis, parathas, bread, or baking. It blends easily into recipes, offering a milder taste and softer texture. Start by replacing 25-50% of regular flour to adjust gradually to its unique consistency and flavor.
  

• +
  Is sprouted flour better for diabetics?

  Sprouted flour has a comparatively lower glycemic impact than refined flour, as sprouting increases fiber and slows starch digestion. While not a medical treatment, it's a wholesome, low-gluten alternative diabetics often prefer. Consult your doctor for personalized dietary advice.
  

• +
  Does sprouted flour contain gluten?

  Sprouting doesn't fully remove gluten unless the grain is naturally gluten-free, like sprouted ragi or jowar. Wheat-based sprouted flour still contains gluten, though sprouting may ease digestibility. Rootz Organics offers select low-gluten and gluten-free sprouted options for sensitive consumers.

• +
  Why is sustainability important?

  The main goal of sustainability is to protect the planet so that future generations don’t have to suffer. Ultimately, we only have finite resources on this planet, but we’re currently not being considerate of that.

  Our actions now shouldn’t be at the expense of our fellow creatures or humans, so it’s important to be aware of sustainability in our daily lives so we don’t cause more irreparable damage to Earth.

• +
  Can Sprouted Ragi Flour be eaten raw?

  What are Millets?

  Millets are small-seeded grasses that are hardy and grow well in dry zones as rain-fed crops, under marginal conditions of soil fertility and moisture. Millets are one of the oldest foods known to humans and possibly the first cereal grain to be used for domestic purposes.
  Millets are also unique due to their short growing season. They can develop from planted seeds to mature, ready to harvest plants in as little as 65 days. This is important in heavily populated areas. When properly stored, whole millets will keep for two or more years.

  Millets are traditional grains, grown and eaten in in the Indian subcontinent for at least the past 5000 years. They are rain-fed, hardy grains which have low requirements of water and fertility when compared to other popular cereals
