No more Pillsbury Atta / Sujata Atta in Bay area, in entire US

hey just now i called to giant n they have no membership fee...
m goin this weekend to buy.

 

Hey,

There is no membership fee !!! We do get Rice(non-sticky) ,bengal gram, chenna ( Kondakadalai - Tamil ), full lentils, rice flour, Rajma, Black eyed beans ( Karamani - Tamil ) etc..... It is too good and healthy !!!!

 

ok.... even i brought these items u have mentioned from pathmark.
what is bengal gram?

hey which American rice do u use for Dosa batter...i tried Carolina rice(Paraboiled rice)...but due to this shortage m not getting at my end.
and other long grain rice arent good for dosa batter...i.e. i couldnt manage wid Long grain rice for making dosa.

 

Hey..

Bengal gram - Kadalai paruppu ( broken beans) .. As asked, we are using self branded paraboiled rice only.

Have a great shopping weekend !!

 

ok so i was correct abt rice..this paraboiled rice is good for making Dosa...as wid ling grain rice i didnt get regular dosa.

hey
i brought wheat flour from Giant...and their service is so good...i asked before goin if this flour is available...n without any hesitation they told me too.
i made roti with this flour...but i couldnt make soft roti....do i need to add more oil/ghee...as wid Sujata/Nature fresh i never get this problem.
may be with lil more practice i can make soft roti's.

once again thanks to You!

 

Hi all,

Still, we are not getting Pillsbury and Sujata atta here in our city.

But the Nirav brand whole wheat flour is very good. Every time i make, I get soft chapathis and parathas. It has excellent flavor and texture too !:drool

Do give this a try if it is available in your area..!:thumbsup

Cheers
Krithika

 

Hey..
I used to make the dough with warm water. It is coming out nicely for me. Try it..How do you find the taste ? Too good.. ???

 

Me too, always make the chapathi dough with warm water..this is my mom's tip and always worked out well !

 

hi Krithika......long time no see.

seems now sujata will available soon...as in only one shop we saw sujata...so we are hoping that within 1-2 months will available all regular wheat brands.

test is good ....... i also use warm water. but somehow i couldnt make too soft like earlier one i used to make with sujata.

 

hey but this Giant flour is very cheap compared to others.
