Besan, also known as chickpea flour or gram flour, is a versatile and popular ingredient in Indian, Pakistani, and Middle Eastern cuisines. It is made from finely ground chickpeas, and has a pale yellow color and a nutty flavor. Besan can be used in a variety of dishes, both savory and sweet. In savory dishes, it is often used as a thickener for curries, soups, and stews, or as a coating for vegetables or meats before frying. It can also be mixed with water or yogurt to make a batter for fritters, pakoras, or pancakes. In sweet dishes, besan is used to make traditional desserts like besan ladoo and besan barfi, which are made by mixing the flour with sugar, ghee, and other ingredients to form a dense, sweet confection. Besan is a gluten-free and high-protein alternative to wheat flour, and is often used in gluten-free baking or as a substitute for eggs in vegan recipes. Its versatility and unique flavor make it a popular ingredient in many cuisines around the world.
