Our purest expression of the pearl. Roasted, air-puffed lotus seeds seasoned with nothing more than ancient Himalayan pink salt and a gentle turn of black pepper. Light, mineral, quietly moreish, a clean savory crunch with zero sugar and nothing to hide behind. This is makhana at its most honest.
Not every great snack needs a long ingredient list. Our Himalayan Pink Salt & Black Pepper Makhana proves it.
We take roasted puffed lotus seeds, coat them lightly in rapeseed oil, and season them with mineralrich Himalayan pink salt and a hit of freshly cracked black pepper. That's it.
The result is a wonderfully light, crunchy snack with a clean, savoury flavor that lets the natural nuttiness of the lotus seed shine through. It's the kind of snack you can eat by the handful - crisp, moreish and free from the heaviness of fried crisps.
With 3.3g of fibre and 4.5g of plant protein per pack, and zero sugar, it's a simple, honest snack for people who like to keep things straightforward. Perfect on its own, brilliant as a crunchy topping, and always a crowd-pleaser.

The seasoning is deliberately minimal - Himalayan pink salt for a clean, mineral savories, and black pepper for gentle warmth and aroma. There's nothing to distract from the natural quality of the seed itself.
Clean and savory → subtle nuttiness → a gentle peppery warmth on the finish.

and pepper suits it so well.
