Sprouted ragi flour is made from ragi grains that are first soaked, allowed to sprout, and then dried and ground into a fine flour. The sprouting process activates enzymes that break down antinutrients like phytic acid, improving the absorption of minerals and making the flour more digestible. This flour is an excellent alternative to refined grains and can be used in a variety of recipes such as porridge, dosa, roti, idli, and baking products like cakes and cookies.
