"Crack through the crisp shell to reveal a soft, dust-filled Red Nakumatt crumble"
Description
Red Nakumatt Balls are a natural Indian clay known for their firm, snappy crunch and bold iron-rich flavour profile. These handcrafted clay balls are made from finely milled Red Nakumatt clay with a crumb-filled centre and a touch of Red Khadi, creating a layered sensory experience that combines a crisp outer shell with a soft, powdery interior. Each bite delivers notes of wet soil, fresh petrichor, rich red minerals, and subtle metallic earthiness before melting into a satisfying dusty crumble. The texture offers a clean, dry finish with a robust natural earth character. Traditionally associated with India's long-standing appreciation of Red Nakumatt clays and handcrafted earth treats.
