Sooji, also known as semolina or rava, is a coarsely or finely milled durum wheat product with a slightly grainy texture and a mild, nutty flavour. An absolute staple in South Asian and Nepali kitchens, sooji is used in an extraordinary range of preparations. On the savoury side, it is the base for upma, a popular South Indian breakfast dish, and is used in South Asian-style halwa and sheera for sweet porridge-style desserts. It is also used to make crispy coatings for fried snacks, add texture to idli batter, and prepare rawa dosa. In Nepali cooking, sooji halwa is a traditional sweet prepared for festivals and religious occasions. The 2lb bag is ideal for regular household use. Customers rely on sooji as a versatile, essential ingredient that bridges sweet and savoury cooking across South Asian traditions.
