Wheat flour dose is one of the most commonly prepared instant dose. There is no denying the fact that it tastes equally good. If you have already prepared or tasted it, you shall agree with me when I say that the resultant dose is very soft too! Have you tried whole wheat dose?

Whole Wheat Dose Stories :
In my childhood, come Saturdays, wheat flour dose used to be my mom’s go to breakfast dish – we loved it as breakfast, also does it serve as my mom’s Vrat food. Any other day, if mom isn’t ready with any breakfast menu, this would be her instant resort! Though whole wheat Dose was prepared very rarely, I always loved it for its crispiness. Now, whole wheat dose is one of the most frequently repeated items at our home. We all love the original taste – without any spice additives!
