90% Organic Roasted Chana • Aromatic Heeng • Red Chilli & Rock Salt
The familiar crunch of roasted chana, with the unmistakable aroma of heeng. Made with organically grown chana, seasoned with asafetida, organic red chili and rock salt, and finished with organic groundnut oil to help the seasoning coat every bite.
Some flavors are unmistakably Indian. Heeng is one of them.
Its pungent aroma and distinctive savory character have made it a familiar ingredient in Indian kitchens for generations, particularly in dals, vegetable preparations and traditional snacks.
Our Heeng Roasted Chana brings that familiar flavor to one of India's oldest and most satisfying snacks: roasted gram.
With 90% organic roasted chana, this is a snack in which the main ingredient does most of the work. The chana brings its characteristic earthy flavor, natural nuttiness and firm, satisfying crunch.
Aromatic heeng provides the distinctive savory seasoning, while organic red chili powder adds warmth and a little heat. Rock salt helps balance the flavors without overwhelming the natural taste of the chana.
The chana is roasted, not deep-fried. Organic groundnut oil is used to help the heeng, chili and salt adhere to the roasted chana, rather than serving as the primary cooking medium.
The result is a straightforward, flavorful Indian snack: crunchy roasted chana with a bold, aromatic seasoning.
Naturally containing plant protein and dietary fiber, it's a satisfying choice for your afternoon tea, office snack box or those moments when you want something crunchy between meals.

Chana, or Bengal gram, is a familiar part of Indian diets, enjoyed in everything from dals and curries to sattu and roasted snacks.
Roasting transforms the gram into a crisp, flavorful snack while retaining much of its naturally occurring protein and mineral content.
With 90% roasted chana, our recipe is built around the ingredient itself, rather than flour-based namkeen or a heavy coating.
Chana naturally contributes plant protein, dietary fiber, iron, phosphorus and other essential minerals.
Heeng, also known as asafetida, is a resinous substance obtained from plants belonging to the genus Ferula.
It is particularly valued in Indian cooking for its strong aroma and distinctive savory flavor.
Although its aroma can be quite pungent on its own, heeng develops a more rounded, complex character when incorporated into food.
In our Roasted Chana, heeng is the defining seasoning. It gives the snack its characteristic aroma and a flavor that is quite different from ordinary salted or masala chana.
Our chana is roasted rather than deep-fried.
Roasting helps develop the familiar nutty flavor and firm, crunchy texture that makes roasted chana such a popular Indian snack.
Organic groundnut oil is used to help the seasoning adhere, ensuring the heeng, chili and salt are distributed throughout the mixture.
The seasoning combines the savory character of heeng with organic red chili powder and rock salt.
The chili brings warmth, while the rock salt enhances the flavors of the roasted gram.
There is no added sweetener in the declared recipe, allowing the savory flavor of the chana and heeng to take center stage.
Roasted snacks are best enjoyed when they retain their original crunch and flavor.
Our Heeng Roasted Chana is sealed with a food-grade oxygen absorber to help limit oxygen exposure and slow oxidative deterioration.
The sealed packaging also helps protect the product from external moisture when stored correctly.

Heeng has a rather interesting journey from plant to kitchen.
It originates as a strongly aromatic gum-resin obtained from the roots and rhizomes of certain Ferula plants. The resin is collected, dried and prepared for culinary use.
Despite its powerful aroma, heeng is traditionally used in very small quantities in Indian cooking because a little can influence the flavor of an entire dish.
Its distinctive aroma comes largely from naturally occurring sulphur-containing compounds, which give it a flavor unlike most other spices.
In our Heeng Roasted Chana, this traditional Indian seasoning meets the familiar crunch of roasted gram.
