SARAPARUPPU

Saraparuppu, also known as Chironji Nuts, are the edible seeds of the Buchanania lanzan tree, a wild plant native to India. These ivory-colored seeds resemble almonds in texture and have a subtly sweet, nutty flavor. Traditionally used in South Indian and North Indian cuisines, Saraparuppu is a staple ingredient in festive sweets like payasam, halwa, and laddu. Beyond their culinary use, Chironji seeds are highly valued in Ayurveda and Siddha medicine for their cooling properties, digestive support, and ability to strengthen the body. Rich in protein, healthy fats, and minerals like calcium and iron, they are considered a nourishing food especially beneficial for children and postpartum care. At Kannadiyar, we source high-quality, naturally processed Saraparuppu to deliver authentic taste, nutrition, and the wholesome essence of traditional Indian wellness.
