Dalia / Lapsi
Mielona z twardej pszenicy uprawianej na płaskowyżu Malwa w środkowych Indiach, nasza łamana pszenica jest obgotowywana, suszona i łamana na czysty, równy grys. Obgotowanie zamyka otręby i zarodek, jednocześnie skracając czas gotowania o połowę, dając orzechowe, lekko słodkie ziarno o satysfakcjonującym gryzie. Paruj je na wytrawne upma, gotuj z jaggery i ghee na lapsi lub wymieszaj na zimno w ziołowo-jasne tabbouleh.

Cracked Wheat (Dalia / Lapsi) is a versatile, parboiled whole grain sourced from India's Malwa Plateau. Valued for its nutritional profile and quick-cooking nature, it serves as a culinary staple in various global cuisines, offered by Treedha to bulk importers and private-label buyers worldwide.
Sourcing & Origin
Treedha's Cracked Wheat, also known as Dalia or Lapsi in India, and globally as Bulgur, Fada, Burghul, or Tabbouleh Wheat, originates from the fertile Malwa Plateau in Madhya Pradesh, India. Situated at an elevation of 450-550 metres, this region is renowned for producing high-quality durum wheat, which is ideal for parboiling and cracking.
The distinct terroir of the Malwa Plateau, combined with optimal climatic conditions, contributes to the superior characteristics of the wheat. For bulk buyers, sourcing from this specific Indian origin ensures a consistent supply of grain with desirable texture and nutritional integrity, critical for culinary applications from traditional South Asian dishes to Mediterranean tabbouleh.
Export Grades & Specifications
Treedha specialises in Coarse #3 cut, parboiled Cracked Wheat, a grade distinguished by its particle size and convenient preparation. This specific cut typically exhibits a granulation of 1.5–2.2 mm, offering a hearty texture suitable for a wide array of recipes.
Our Cracked Wheat undergoes a meticulous process: it is cleaned, parboiled, kiln-dried, and then precisely cracked. Further sortex-cleaning ensures uniform grit and exceptional purity, free from foreign matter. The parboiling step gelatinises the starch, making the grain quicker to cook and more resistant to pests, enhancing its appeal for bulk trade.

Treedha adheres to rigorous international food safety standards, ensuring our Cracked Wheat (Dalia / Lapsi) meets the stringent requirements of global markets like the EU and US. Our product is steam-sterilised, confirming it is ethylene-oxide-free (ETO-free), a critical compliance point for EU imports where ETO is banned and subject to MRLs of 0.1 mg/kg (sum of ETO and 2-chloro-ethanol, expressed as ETO), as per EU regulations.
Each batch is lab-tested for contaminants, including aflatoxins and mycotoxins. For EU markets, our products meet limits such as 2.0 µg/kg for Aflatoxin B1 and 4.0 µg/kg for total Aflatoxins (B1+B2+G1+G2) in cereals, as set by the European Commission. We also ensure compliance with pesticide MRLs (default EU MRL of 0.01 mg/kg if no specific level exists) and strict microbiological criteria, including Salmonella (0 cfu/25g), a common specified maximum for coarse bulgur. Heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, and lead are also monitored per Regulation (EU) 2023/915 and FDA guidance.
Comprehensive documentation accompanies every shipment, including a Phytosanitary Certificate and a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA). This COA verifies quality parameters like moisture content, protein levels, and screening results for ETO, aflatoxins, MRLs, and Salmonella, providing full provenance and transparency for our bulk buyers.
Global Demand & Target Markets
Cracked Wheat (Bulgur / Dalia) is a globally sought-after whole grain, driven by its culinary versatility and recognised nutritional benefits. It is a fundamental ingredient in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian cuisines, featuring prominently in dishes such as Tabbouleh, Kibbeh, pilafs, and as a healthy alternative to rice or couscous.
The global demand for bulgur wheat saw Iraq (US$34.3M), Syria (US$22.5M), and Germany (US$19.2M) as primary importing nations in 2022, according to ITC Trade Map data. The European Union is a growing market, with increasing imports. Other significant destinations include the United States, Dominican Republic, Namibia, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Reunion, and Haiti, indicating widespread appeal.
Growth in demand is underpinned by increasing consumer preference for healthy foods, with bulgur recognised as a USDA whole grain offering high fibre (up to 8 grams per cup) and substantial protein (11-14%). Its parboiled nature also makes it a quick-cooking, convenient option for both home cooks and food manufacturers, aligning with modern dietary trends and busy lifestyles. Demographic shifts, particularly of Middle Eastern populations in EU member states, further fuel consumption.

Pytania
- Czy dalia to to samo co bulgur?
- Oba to łamana pszenica, ale różnią się jednym krokiem. Zwykła dalia to po prostu łamana surowa pszenica, podczas gdy bulgur jest obgotowywany przed łamaniem. Nasze ziarno jest w stylu obgotowanym, więc niesie orzechowy charakter bulguru i krótszy czas gotowania, i równie dobrze sprawdza się w indyjskich potrawach dalia, jak i śródziemnomorskim tabbouleh.
- Jak je gotować i jak długo to trwa?
- Ponieważ jest obgotowana, gotuje się szybko. Gotuj jedną część ziarna na dwie części wody przez około 12-15 minut dla puszystej wytrawnej tekstury lub namocz drobny krój w gorącej wodzie do zimnych sałatek. Uprażenie jej najpierw na odrobinie ghee pogłębia orzechowy aromat.
- Czy zawiera gluten?
- Tak. Łamana pszenica to produkt pszenny i naturalnie zawiera gluten, więc nie nadaje się do diet dla osób z celiakią ani diet bezglutenowych. Jest jednak pełnym ziarnem, które zachowuje otręby i zarodek dla wyższej zawartości błonnika.
