How to Do It

What It Reveals About Quality

Texture Test

Rub a pinch of flour between fingers

Sharbati wheat flour is slightly grainy because of bran content. Excessive smoothness could imply fine wheat mix or maida blending- again, not in our process.

Water Sedimentation

Add a tablespoon of flour to a glass of water, stir and leave to stand 20-30 minutes.

Pure wheat deposits in a thin even layer with a light yellow colour. Separation or floating particles may be an indication of impurities or starch addition.

Lemon Reaction

Add a few drops of lemon juice

No fizz confirms absence of chemical bleaching or chalk additives.

Aroma check

Sprinkle flour on a dry hot pan or rub a small amount in the palm of your hand until it is warm.

smell a fresh, earthy wheat aroma, this is the indication of freshly milled grain with bran and germ intact. Improper storage or additives can be indicated by a musty or chemical odour.

Taste Test

Take a small roti and eat it when it is hot.

Sharbati wheat has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. Bitter or tasteless may indicate poorer quality wheat or combinations of grains.


These are not tests, they are mini rituals that add trust and connection to every meal that is prepared using Sharbati Supreme Aata.
