Description

Premium Black Eye Beans – The Versatile Gujarati Staple

Fast, Flavorful, and Filling In the busy kitchens of Ahmedabad, Black Eye Beans (Safed Lobia / Chola) are a lifesaver. Unlike Rajma or Chana which require overnight soaking, Chola can be cooked almost instantly. Jalaram Food Products supplies premium quality, insect-free Chola to caterers and restaurants. We understand that for a Farsan shop or Thali restaurant, the Chola must be soft and buttery, never hard or gritty.

Why Caterers & Breakfast Joints Choose Jalaram Chola?

  • Insect-Free Guarantee: Lobia is notorious for getting infested with weevils quickly. Our stock is processed, cleaned, and stored in controlled environments to ensure you receive fresh, pest-free beans every time.
  • Uniform Cooking: We grade our Chola by size. This ensures that when you boil a large pot for Rasawala Chola, every bean cooks to the same softness. You won’t find a mix of mashed beans and hard raw ones.
  • The “Creamy” Gravy: Our variety releases just enough starch to thicken the curry naturally, creating the perfect coating consistency for dipping Puris.

Culinary Applications in HoReCa Our B2B clients rely on our bulk Chola for:

  1. Chola Puri: The heavy breakfast of champions in Gujarat. Spicy, dry, or semi-gravy Chola served with huge fried Puris.
  2. Rasawala Chola: A standard item in Gujarati Thalis (Kathol). Cooked with jaggery and tamarind for a sweet-sour-spicy profile.
  3. Lobia Salad: Boiled black-eyed peas mixed with chopped veggies. A high-protein vegan salad option for modern cafes.
  4. Mixed Kathol: Often mixed with whole Moong and Chana for a nutritious mixed-bean curry.

Jalaram Supply Advantage

  • Sortex Cleaned: We remove the discolored or shriveled beans that ruin the look of a dish. You get a uniform white-and-black product that looks appetizing on the plate.
  • Bulk Economics: Available in 30kg and 50kg Bags. Since this is a high-volume item for Sunday breakfasts and wedding menus, we ensure consistent supply.

Storage & Usage

  • Shelf Life: 6-9 Months.
  • Storage: Critical: Store in a cool, dry place. Lobia is very susceptible to humidity and pests. Keep bags sealed tight.
  • Prep Tip: Soaking is optional but recommended for 30 minutes to ensure even cooking. Whistle 2-3 times only.
