Yellow Split Mung Dal

Dhuli Moong Dal

Whole mung beans from India's main moong belt, split and skinned to reveal the soft yellow heart within. Sourced chiefly from Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, this washed dal cooks fast to a smooth, naturally sweet pulp and is famously easy on digestion. The foundation of everyday moong dal, soothing kitchari and Ayurvedic cleanses, it equally lifts savoury batters and halwa.

Questions

Is dhuli moong dal the same as yellow split mung dal?
Yes. Dhuli moong dal is whole green mung that has been split and had its green husk washed away (dhuli means washed), leaving the golden-yellow split lentil also known as moong dal.
Why is moong dal considered easy to digest?
Splitting and skinning the bean removes most of the fibrous husk, so it cooks quickly to a soft pulp and sits lightly on the stomach. It is the classic choice for kitchari and convalescent meals.
Does yellow moong dal need soaking?
No soaking is required; it cooks in around 20-25 minutes. A short 15-minute soak will shorten the time further and give an even creamier texture.
