Ragi Hurihittu (12 months+)
Do you remember those childhood days when the kitchen was filled with the warm, nutty aroma of homemade snacks? That’s exactly the feeling I wanted to capture with Ragi Hurihittu. This isn’t just a snack—it’s a slice of tradition, lovingly made to bring back memories of home while nourishing your family.
At the heart of Ragi Hurihittu is Ragi (finger millet)—an ancient grain that’s been a staple in our homes for generations. But this isn’t just any Ragi. It’s carefully washed, soaked, and popped to perfection, unlocking a deliciously nutty flavour and amplifying its nutritional benefits.
To make it even more special, we’ve added the warm, aromatic embrace of green cardamom (elaichi). The result? A wholesome, subtly sweet treat that’s rich in calcium, iron, and fibre—perfect for growing kids and health-conscious adults alike.
