Pigeon peas (Cajanus cajan), known as "arhar" in Hindi, are a staple legume cultivated widely in tropical and subtropical regions, especially in India, Africa, and the Caribbean. After harvesting and drying, the peas are split into halves, known as split pigeon peas or toor dal.

Culinary Uses:

Toor dal is a versatile ingredient in Indian cuisine, used in dishes like dal and sambar. It absorbs the rich flavors of spices such as cumin, coriander, and turmeric, enhancing the taste of these traditional recipes. In Caribbean and Latin American cuisines, toor dal is a key ingredient in dishes like rice and peas (arroz con gandules), adding a unique and savory flavor profile.
