Makhana carries the burden of officially being extremely healthy and surprisingly tasty.

Eaten all over Asia, derived from the prickly waterlily and known as lotus seeds or fox nuts, makhana has been around for a very long time. While 90% of the world's produce is grown in Bihar (India) and cultivated in lowland ponds and wetlands, fox nuts are also grown in Japan, China and Korea.
