01 / SOURCING & SELECTION
A crop with roots.
A kernel worth choosing.
Bihar has a longstanding connection with makhana cultivation and primary processing. Growing, harvesting and popping makhana call for the knowledge and skill of farming and processing communities.
Nutique sources through farmers and local supply partners in Bihar. At our Jaipur plant, selection and grading prepare the makhana for roasting. Our handpicked 6 sutta selection highlights larger kernels, chosen with attention to size and appearance.

02 / INSIDE THE PRODUCTION LINE
The right equipment.
Care at every stage.
Grade & sort
Grading and sorting separate sizes and help identify broken pieces and unwanted material before roasting. Our 6 sutta selection puts larger, handpicked kernels in focus.
Roast for crunch
Our large rotary roaster develops the makhana’s texture, with attention to an even roast and a consistent crunch.
Prepare & coat
A dedicated slurry kettle prepares the seasoning mixture. The flavouring drum tumbles the makhana to spread the coating evenly.
Weigh, flush & seal
After cooling, the four-head packaging machine weighs makhana into pouches. Nitrogen from our in-house plant is used to flush the pouches before sealing.
Check & dispatch
We check pack weight, closures, batch details and the condition of finished packs before storage and dispatch.
PACKED WITH CARE, IN JAIPUR
Four heads.
One careful finish.
Our four-head packaging machine weighs makhana into pouches, with nitrogen flushing at the packing stage. The nitrogen comes from our own in-house plant.
From the final weight check to the seal, we give the finish the same attention as the roast.
Our checks before dispatch03 / HYGIENE IN THE WORKPLACE
Clean work.
Careful handling.
Our hygiene priorities, from people to packing.
People & personal hygiene
Clean workwear, hair covering, hand hygiene and appropriate protective wear are central to careful food handling.
Clean food-contact surfaces
Attention to the cleanliness of equipment, utensils and contact surfaces helps protect makhana throughout preparation.
Organised movement of materials
Raw materials, processing and finished packs move through their dedicated areas with care to reduce unnecessary handling.
Careful storage & housekeeping
Protected storage, moisture awareness, orderly floors and waste handling support a clean working environment.
04 / QUALITY THROUGH THE PROCESS
