Prickly Water Lily (Euryale ferox)
Manufacturing Process and Family: The prickly water lily is a member of the family Nymphaeaceae, which includes various species of water lilies. It is an aquatic plant that thrives in shallow, stagnant or slow-moving waters. The seeds of Euryale ferox, known as foxnuts or makhana, are harvested for consumption. The process involves collecting mature seeds from the water, cleaning them, and then drying them. The dried seeds are then roasted or popped to make them edible.
Uses: The seeds of the prickly water lily, or makhana, are used as a nutritious snack or ingredient in various dishes. They can be eaten roasted, popped, or ground into flour. Makhana is used in traditional Indian sweets, puddings, and curries. The popped seeds are also incorporated into breakfast cereals, soups, and salads for added texture and nutrition.
International Names:
- Although Euryale ferox seeds are primarily known and consumed in India as makhana, they are also recognized in other countries where they might be referred to as foxnuts or gorgon nuts.
