What is this Myanmar legume flour? It reminded me of Chickpea flour in behavior but was clearly different, it might be Pigeon Pea flour. What is it actually?

Welcome to SA! It might also help if you can show a picture of the flour, or describe why/how you got it.– FuzzyChefJun 29, 2021 at 18:20

I don't know if this is what you've got, but one famous Myanmar dish is "tofu" made from chickpea flour. If this flour looks like chickpea flour, it's a good bet that's what it is.– The PhotonJun 29, 2021 at 18:51

This appears to be some kind of chickpea flour. According to Google Translate, the Burmese word for chickpea is ကုလားပဲ, which matches the label. Here is a similar product, “roasted chickpea flour”, for label comparison for sale:

Thanks, what you say feels true for me also because in the Burmese cuisine, it is common to roast and fry legumes, more than in any cuisine I have ever known. Thanks, Jul 2, 2021 at 10:52
