5 Brands That Need To Be In Your Indian Vegan Kitchen

Here are five Indian brands making delicious vegan goodies that need to be part of your kitchen shelves now!
 

1. GOOD GRAZE GIVES US THREE REASONS TO GO NUTS ABOUT COCONUTS

Good Graze is a new homegrown coconut brand offering zero waste, clean and organic coconut products. Their initial offerings include: Coconut Sugar, Cold-pressed Virgin Coconut Oil and Desiccated Coconut. Good Graze's products come from the founder's ancestral farms that have been in the family for five generations.

Made from the nectar of coconut palm flowers, Good Graze’s Coconut Sugar preserves a lot more minerals that are otherwise lost while processing white sugar and it also is lower in fructose compared to cane sugar, agave or maple syrup. Good Graze’s Cold-pressed Virgin Coconut Oil is made with handpicked organic coconuts that are cold-pressed to make into their coconut oil. The oil is naturally high in lauric acid and can be used in a variety of ways whether it is in your daily cooking, salads or bakes, and even for your health, hair and skin needs.

Good Graze’s pristine white Desiccated Coconut packs a punch with concentrated coconut flavour. What’s more, this can be used to make coconut butter by simply grinding it or coconut milk by mixing it with water.

Good Graze’s products come from their very own heritage and are crafted from their hearts and they look forward to launching many more products with coconut at the core.

2. YUMMUS' HIGH PROTEIN, FLAVOURFUL HUMMUS WILL BRIGHTEN UP YOUR SALADS AND SANDWICHES

Yummus is currently making 12 flavours of Hummus which are made with farm fresh simple ingredients, just the way Hummus is meant to be. The founders, a young couple from Bengaluru, were inspired after their travels to Greece and wanted to bring back the healthy, classic mediterranean flavours through their kitchen.

The best part of hummus is that it can be used as a dip, a spread or even as a salad dressing and you can use Yummus’ preservative-free hummus to flavour up your dishes. You could do with some of their bright pink Beetroot Hummus, full of that earthy beetroot flavour with a lemon garlic kick in a sandwich or maybe use their best-seller Roasted Red Pepper Hummus to add some smoky goodness to your otherwise bland salads.

We also recommend the Spinach Hummus as a great way to add in those greens to your diet and we know the Peri Peri dip makes a perfect dip to go with veggie sticks or baked khakras. Currently Yummus is only available in Bengaluru.
