Himayalan Toor (Un-split with shell) - Organically Grown - 1 Kg

Staples

Toor/Arhar Dal unsplit with shell is among the most nutritious things that money can buy. Cooking this dal takes a bit of preparation, it needs a good overnight soaking, but results are fantastic. You can make dal with an amazing gravy and all the goodness of vitamins and fiber that the shell provides.
The dried peas may be sprouted briefly, then cooked, for a flavor different from the green or dried peas.

The fragrance of this dal when grown in rich Himalayan mountain soil with the goodness of organic manure and compost is incredible.
This dal can be added to any rajma or any other mountain dal to give exquisite results. 

Organic dal in the upper Tons Valley, Uttarakhand: 

Dals provide significant vegetable protein to the diet in our valley. Almost all farmers sow a variety of dals. Farmers who have dal which is surplus to their annual food and seed purpose, 
sell to earn money. We are supporting these hard working farmers by finding a fair market for their dal. We pay a fair price that compensates them for growing dal in remote
fields which don't even have access to a road. The harvest has to be brought on mules to the nearest road and the transported to our processing center.

Our dal is completely organic, grown using only natural compost and cow manure. No inorganic fertilizer or chemical pesticides are used. 
We are in the process of helping these farmers getting their produce certified organic very soon.

About Tons Trails
Tons Trails is a travel company ! We began work in 2013, in a small way, putting the tiny himalayan village of Kalap ( www.kalap.in ) in tourism (and literally on Google) maps!
We did this the hard way by narrating the story of the destination and training the local people in hospitality practices such as running a homestay and guiding tourists.
In 2017, other villages in the Tons Valley, asked us to work with them too. So, now we are working to bring economic empowerment through tourism to 37 villages!
Now, we aggregate products produced by the local communities here and help find a fair price for them. 2% of the revenues are earmarked for supporting Kalap Trust.
