Everyday Protein Barley Flour, High Protein Jau Atta, 500g

Everyday Protein Barley Flour, High Protein Jau Atta, 500g

Bring the time-tested goodness of jau into a modern kitchen. Barley was in Indian food long before wheat took over the mandi, and it is coming back now mostly through people looking for more fibre. Our barley flour is milled fresh after you order, so the beta-glucan and the gentle, malty sweetness reach you alive.

Milled fresh after you order

  • Whole barley is cleaned and milled after your order rather than months in advance
  • Nothing is added. No additives, no preservative, no anti-caking agent
  • Packed and dispatched from that batch

Watch your own batch. Every pack carries a QR code showing the batch that became your flour.

Nutrition per 100g

  • High in plant protein for a cereal flour
  • Beta-glucan. Barley is one of the richest everyday sources of soluble beta-glucan fibre of any grain
  • A source of dietary fibre and minerals
  • Declared values are on your pack and the full analysis is here: our lab reports

Contains barley and gluten. Jau is not gluten free and is not suitable for coeliac disease.

What makes jau flour different

  • The beta-glucan, the soluble fibre barley is known for, which is also what gives the dough its slightly silky feel
  • It eats light for a high-fibre grain, which is unusual and is why jau rotis do not sit heavy
  • Cooling by tradition. In Indian kitchens jau is the summer grain, used in sattu-style drinks and light rotis
  • The taste is malty and mildly sweet, closer to wheat than any millet, which makes it an easy first swap

Who it is for

  • Anyone deliberately adding fibre and protein to the daily roti
  • Families who have tried millets and found them too strong
  • Households looking for a lighter summer flour
  • Anyone who came here after reading about jau and wants the grain itself

How to use it

  • Jau rotis and parathas, usually blended with wheat
  • Missi roti mixes, with besan and spices
  • Thalipeeth
  • Jau sattu drinks, the traditional summer cooler

Our nutritionist Dr. Anju suggests starting with 30% jau to 70% wheat if barley roti is new to you.

One dough tip. Barley absorbs a little more water than wheat and the dough stays softer to handle. Knead slightly softer than atta, and rest before rolling.

Pack size

  • 500g, ₹113.33. A good size for blending jau into your regular atta rather than using it alone

Frequently asked questions

What is jau called in English?

Jau is barley. It is a completely different grain from jowar, which is sorghum, and the two get confused constantly. We wrote about it here: Jau vs Jowar, are they the same grain?

Is barley flour gluten free?

No. Barley naturally contains gluten and is not suitable for coeliac disease. For gluten-free options try our Jowar Atta or Multi Millet Atta.

What is beta-glucan?

A type of soluble fibre found in high amounts in barley and oats. It is the main reason jau has the fibre reputation it does.

How is this different from your Barley Atta?

Our Barley Atta is the stone-ground line, milled on the chakki for roti-making. This is the Everyday Protein version. Same grain, different range.

Can I make roti with 100% jau flour?

Yes, though the dough is softer to handle. Many families use a 30:70 or 50:50 jau and wheat mix, especially at the start.

Is jau good for weight management?

Barley is high in fibre and keeps you full longer, which helps with portion control as part of a balanced diet. It is a food, not a weight-loss treatment.
