Khapli Emmer Wheat · Cold-Pressed · Rice-Replacement Shape
Most rice alternatives ask you to give something up. This one doesn't.
Pepe Bucato — tiny, hollow, round — is Rootistri's signature rice-replacement shape. It looks like rice. It cooks like rice. It sits in your chitranna, puliogare, bagara rice, and biryani exactly the way rice does — except it's cold-pressed Khapli Emmer wheat with more protein, more fibre, and a glycemic index that doesn't spike you mid-afternoon.
If you've been looking for a way to eat the Indian food you grew up loving without the blood sugar crash, this is it. Same dishes. Same flavours. A grain your body was built for.
Just three ingredients: Khapli Emmer Flour, Psyllium Husk, Water. Cook it like rice — bring water to boil, add Pepe Bucato, simmer 8–10 minutes, drain. Use anywhere you'd use rice.
Best for: chitranna · puliogare · bagara rice · fried rice style dishes · khichdi
