Storage Instructions

• Stay Crunchy: Store in a tightly sealed, airtight container immediately after opening to prevent the seeds from absorbing moisture and becoming soggy.

• Cool Environment: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the natural oils and flavor.

• Reseal Properly: If the makhana loses its crunch, lightly dry-roast it in a pan for 2–3 minutes to restore its crispiness.

Fun Facts

• Ancient Medicine: Makhana has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda for over 3,000 years for its medicinal properties.

• Aquatic Superfood: These are not nuts; they are the seeds of the Euryale ferox plant, which grows in stagnant water or ponds.

• Vrat Special: Because they are non-cereal and organic, they are one of the most preferred foods in India during religious fasting (Vrat).

Usage Ideas

• Healthy Snack: Roast with a teaspoon of ghee and sprinkle with black pepper or peri-peri seasoning.

• Desserts: Use them to make “Makhana Kheer,” a creamy and nutritious pudding.

• Curries: Add them to rich gravies like “Kaju Makhana” for a unique texture.
