Our Traditional Ribbed Gourd (Luffa acutangula), locally known as Niyan Watakolu, consists of fresh, pesticide-free gourds known for their distinctive sharp ridges, vibrant green skin, and white inner flesh. They are a nutritional powerhouse packed with dietary fiber, Vitamin C, iron, and antioxidants. Highly valued in Asian cuisines for their soft, spongy texture and ability to absorb savory flavors, ribbed gourds help boost immunity, strengthen bones, and regulate blood sugar levels.
