🟤 Desi Protein: Why Sattu from Bihar is the Cleanest Protein Powder on Earth

Home - Blogs

In a world obsessed with protein powders, Sattu stands quietly in the corner — humble, wholesome, and desi to the core. But make no mistake: it’s one of the cleanest, most effective sources of plant protein you can find.

At The Superfood, we don’t just sell Sattu — we celebrate it. Especially the kind that’s stone-ground in the farms and local mills of Bihar, where this ancient superfood has been part of daily life for generations.

Let’s dive into why Sattu from Bihar deserves a place in your kitchen (and your blender bottle).

đź’Ş What is Sattu, Exactly?

Sattu is made from roasted Bengal gram (chana) that is stone-ground into a fine, nutty powder. It’s a traditional staple across Bihar, Jharkhand, and parts of UP and West Bengal — used in drinks, doughs, snacks, and even desserts.

🌾 Why Sattu from Bihar is Different

Not all sattu is created equal. Here’s what makes the Bihar version special:

Traditional Roasting Techniques

The Bengal gram is roasted over clay ovens — not machines — giving it a richer, nuttier taste and retaining its nutrients better.

Stone Grinding

Unlike metal grinders that generate heat and degrade quality, local Bihar mills use chakki (stone mills) that preserve fiber, flavor, and freshness.

Single-Origin Farming

We source our chana directly from smallholder farms in Bihar — grown without harmful pesticides, rotated with crops like lentils and mustard to nourish the soil.

đź’š The Cleanest Protein You Can Get

Most protein powders on the market come with:
