Description
Our Premium Pigeon Peas (Cajanus cajan) are one of the most vital perennial legumes in tropical and semitropical agriculture. Known as Toor Dal or Arhar in South Asia and Gandules in the Caribbean, these peas are celebrated for their nutty flavor and high protein content. They are a “climate-smart” crop, featuring exceptional drought tolerance and nitrogen-fixing abilities that naturally enrich the soil. Whether available as Whole Grain (with a tan to reddish-brown skin) or Split Dal (bright yellow), our pigeon peas are Double Sortex-cleaned to ensure a 99.9% purity level. They serve as a foundational ingredient for traditional Indian curries, Caribbean “Rice and Peas,” and modern gluten-free food processing.
