Kashmiri Namkeen Qulcha – Traditional Savory Bread for Everyday Chai
Namkeen Qulcha is a popular Kashmiri flatbread with a light, salty flavor and a soft, thick texture — often enjoyed with noon chai or served alongside breakfast. Simple yet satisfying, this everyday bread is part of many Kashmiri households’ daily routine.
This version of Qulcha is namkeen (savory), with no sugar added. It’s not spicy or overly flavored — just a well-balanced, plain bread that complements salty tea, yogurt, or butter. We source it directly from local Kashmiri bakers who specialize in preparing traditional breads fresh for daily use.
🫓 How to Eat Namkeen Qulcha:
- With Noon Chai (Pink Tea): The most classic way to enjoy it. Dip into hot noon chai and enjoy its soft texture and balanced saltiness.
- With Butter or Malai: Spread a little butter, ghee, or clotted cream on top for a richer bite.
- Served with Yogurt or Eggs: Great as a breakfast side with savory dishes.
- Toasted: Lightly toast it on a pan or in the oven for a crispy version.
🔄 Heating & Storage Tips:
- To Reheat: Toast lightly on a pan (tawa) or heat in a preheated oven at 150°C for 2–3 minutes. Can also be microwaved briefly for a softer feel.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Best consumed within 3–5 days.
