Suryaa Steamed Wheat Flour 1kg

Suryaa Steamed Wheat Flour is wholewheat flour that has been steamed and dried before milling, so it forms light, even crumbs when moistened and steams into soft wheat pittu. It is the flour behind godhumai puttu in Tamil homes and the wheat version of Sri Lankan pittu, and it makes a nutty wheat string hopper too. It is a product of India, imported by Niru (Europe) in Mitcham.

How to use it

For pittu, sprinkle warm salted water over the flour a spoonful at a time and rub it through your fingers until it forms damp crumbs that hold when squeezed. Layer the crumbs with freshly grated coconut in a pittu maker and steam for about eight minutes until steam comes freely through the top. Serve with coconut milk and a hot curry, or with banana and sugar. For string hoppers, scald the flour with boiling water, knead briefly to a soft dough and press through an idiyappam mould onto trays to steam. A half and half blend with roasted red rice flour gives a lighter, more colourful pittu.
