A little bit of my love for khari history

Four years ago, I started to bake cookies, cakes, rusks, biscottis, and puffs. Jeera puffs were one of my favorite purchases in my favorite bakery -Kwality bakers. I wanted to try these lip-smacking puffs for a long time. I must tell you whole wheat croissants have been a favorite with my younger brother as well :) Today, was the day when I did attempt them - though bakeries and confectionery shops use maida (all purpose flour/refined flour) and dalda ghee, I never bring these home. Rather, prefer to bake anything with whole wheat flour, besan (chickpea flour), oatmeal, ragi flour, barley, maize, among other healthy, nutritious cereal grains.

Do you also know that during wheat flour extraction process, over half of the fiber, calcium, B-vitamin, phosphorus, folic acid, iron, copper, and zinc are lost? (source whfoods)

This is one reason you should always go for 100% whole wheat products. This would ensure that you can benefit from the maximum amount of bran and germ of the wheat. Of course, you can derive an umpteen number of health benefits, since wheat in its original form is a great source of dietary fiber and minerals, such as magnesium and manganese.

You know now why I always choose whole wheat flour baking for my cakes, cookies, desserts, and everyday cooking.
