Which brand Wheat flour is best?

Hi,
Pilsbury wheat atta is good.
To get soft chapati,you have to add a pinch of salt and a spoon of curd to atta and mix with water for the consistency,kneed well and keep aside for few minutes.When you roll in to shape use wheat flour only for dusting.When you roll out round shape apply a drop of oil then fold and roll it.While on tava toss it again with one or two drops of oil.These chapati's stay soft longer.Storing these in a caserrole also recommanded to retain its softness.Some people store in a aluminium foil or in plain cotton cloth it depends on their conveniance.
If you want to avoid oil totally then to get softer chapati's you have to knead atta with a spoon of curd,well in advance and keep for half an hour or so.

I use Aashirwad atta (red color pack). It is pure wheat flour

My tip would be to use some warm water while kneading. Also knead it till it is soft and when you press your finger in the dough,it is go in without much effort. Also please make sure you can roll them comfortably.

Trial and error is the best method and stick to the measurements when it comes out right.

 

I recommend Ashirwaad atta as well as the multigrain atta.

 

I think Pillsbury Aata is the best. To make rotis soft try adding about 2-3 tsps of milk while making the dough. I always do that as I make the rotis and keep it in caserole at night to take away next day to office.

 

hi,

if you are in india, why dont you buy whole wheat and get it grinded from the mill.

I used to do that in india, in 3kg of wheat, i used to add 250 gm of soya also, and send it in the mill. best is that.

also like someone said, use hot water for kneading the dough.

Our grocery shop is to get it grinded from the mill.

or you can check with ur maid, if there is any near their house, and can she take and bring it back for you.

 

Ashirwad is good. while kneading atta, add i tsp of oil n knead with plain water. the magic lies in kneading.the dough should be very soft to get soft phulkas or chappatis... i hve been making chappatis for dinner for the past 15 yrs... it is only practise n patience that is needed. best wishes to all.

 

pillsbury is the best atta i am using past 6 yrs.i have tried other brand's atta also compare to all it is good for the colour and the taste.to get soft chapathi add 1 tsp ghee and adequate water and give good massage by ur palm.
Finally add 1tsp oil on the top of the mixing and leave it atleast halfhour u can get good soft chapathi like buri .no need to add hot water and not necessary for oil when u press...
Please use a broad size vessel like kadai while u prepare the mix so that u can make the mix comfortably.

 

I use golden temple "100% whole wheat" atta simply for the reason that it is healthy.

 

I did that and my body is refusing anything made from that soya mixed wheat flour.

Yes, every department store sells quality wheat grains and it is better to grind it rather than buying months old packed branded stuff.
