Inclusive of all taxes

Green Sorrel, also known as Khatta Palak in Hindi and Chukka Kura in Telugu, is a fresh leafy vegetable scientifically classified under Rumex vesicarius and Rumex acetosa. Renowned for its distinct tangy flavor and nutritional richness, this vegetable is especially popular in traditional Indian recipes and valued for its health-enhancing properties. The leafy green features broad, arrowhead or heart-shaped vibrant green leaves measuring 4–10 cm in length and thin, slightly fibrous stems around 10–25 cm long. Its smooth leaves offer a mild acidic flavor due to the naturally occurring oxalic acid. Green Sorrel is high in moisture content (~85–90%), offering a refreshing, mildly tangy taste with benefits such as digestive aid, blood purification, cooling effects, and support for anemia management. Rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, and calcium, it boosts immunity, vision health, collagen formation, and bone strength. Available typically in 100g to 500g bunches and suited for packaging in perforated polybags or plastic trays, it requires careful handling and refrigeration to retain freshness for up to 5 days. Ideal for businesses in fresh produce retail, restaurants, and health-focused food processing industries, this product brings a unique and nutritious option to the leafy vegetable segment.
