What is Arrowroot Powder?

Arrowroot Powder, also known as Koova Podi or Ararut Ka Churna, is a fine, white, starchy flour extracted from the tuber of the arrowroot plant. Traditionally used across India and Southeast Asia, it is known for its soothing properties, digestive ease, and versatility in food and wellness applications.

Unlike cornflour or wheat flour, Arrowroot is naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and easy to digest, making it ideal for children, the elderly, and individuals with food sensitivities.

Our Arrowroot Powder is carefully processed from fresh rhizomes, without any additives, preservatives, or artificial bleaches. It retains its natural white color and smooth texture.

👩‍🌾 Ethically Sourced from Local Farmers

We procure Arrowroot rhizomes from small-scale tribal farmers in Malenadu, ensuring fair wages and empowering rural livelihoods. Your purchase supports sustainable agriculture and forest preservation.

🌀 Traditional Stone-Grinding Process

Arrowroot rhizomes are washed, grated, soaked, and stone-ground using traditional village methods to maintain nutritional integrity and ensure high digestibility.

💧 High Purity & Smooth Consistency

Our Malenadu Arrowroot Powder is ultra-fine, with no lumps or grit, offering exceptional binding and thickening capacity in foods and skincare recipes alike.
