Kidney Beans (Rajma)

Kidney Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), known as Rajma in India, are a beloved legume famous for their rich, creamy texture and earthy flavor. Sikkim’s organically grown Himalayan Rajma is a premium heirloom variety cultivated in the fertile, mineral-rich mountain soil, making it:
• Naturally more flavorful and aromatic
• Higher in protein and antioxidants than commercially grown rajma
• Easy to cook with a buttery texture
This high-altitude-grown kidney bean is pesticide-free, non-GMO, and retains its traditional purity, making it a superior choice for health-conscious consumers.
