How kithul flour is made – Rooted in tradition, kithul flour is produced in rural areas in Sri Lanka. Pieces of pith (heartwood Pulp) are removed and pounded by hand in a mortar. Then, the crushed pith is mixed with water and allowed to strain through a cloth into a pot. The strained flour that settles at the bottom of the pot, once the water is skimmed off the remaining flour is then dried under the warmth of the sun. This process has now been mechanized to meet the quantitative and qualitative demands of both the local and overseas markets.
