- Known As: Tuvar Falli; Pigeon Beans.
- Appearance: Tuvar falli pods are long, slender, and slightly curved, with a smooth green surface. They are typically harvested when the pods are young and tender, before the seeds inside have fully developed.
- Texture: Fresh pigeon pea pods are crisp and crunchy, with a tender texture similar to green beans or snap peas. The pods have a slight snap when broken, and the inner flesh is juicy and slightly sweet.
- Flavor: Tuvar falli pods have a mild and slightly sweet flavor with a fresh, vegetal taste. The flavor is less intense compared to mature pigeon peas and is often described as nutty or earthy.
- Nutritional Content: Pigeon pea pods are nutritious and rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. They provide essential nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, and magnesium. Pigeon pea pods are also low in fat and cholesterol-free.
- Culinary Uses: Tuvar falli pods are used in various culinary dishes, particularly in Indian cuisine. They are commonly used in curries, stews, soups, and rice dishes. Pigeon pea pods can also be used in salads, stir-fries, and as a filling for savory pastries and snacks.
- Harvesting: Pigeon pea plants produce pods containing the seeds (tuvar dana). Tuvar falli pods are harvested when they are still young and tender, typically before the seeds have fully developed. The pods are carefully harvested by hand to avoid damaging the plant.
- Storage: Fresh tuvar falli pods should be used promptly after harvesting for the best flavor and texture. If not used immediately, they can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days. Alternatively, they can be blanched and frozen for longer-term storage.
