The Story Of Sagoo Seeds

Sagoo, or sago, is derived from the pith of the sago palm tree and has been a dietary staple across South and Southeast Asia for centuries. These small, white, starchy pearls have a naturally neutral flavour and a remarkable ability to absorb the tastes of whatever they are cooked with, transforming into glossy, translucent, pleasantly chewy spheres that are both deeply satisfying and highly digestible. Lioncroft's Sagoo Seeds are carefully processed to ensure consistent pearl size and quality, offering reliable results in a wide range of culinary applications.

In Indian cooking, sago — known as "sabudana" — is most famous as the primary ingredient in sabudana khichdi, a spiced, peanut-studded dish traditionally eaten during religious fasting days when grains are avoided. Sabudana khichdi is beloved for its satisfying, slightly chewy texture and its ability to provide sustained energy during periods of fasting. Sago pearls are also used in sweet puddings, kheer-style desserts, and cooling drinks, where their jelly-like texture makes them particularly enjoyable in warm weather. In Southeast Asian cooking, sago forms the basis of traditional puddings and desserts. Naturally gluten-free and easy to digest, Lioncroft's Sagoo Seeds are a versatile, nourishing ingredient that deserves a permanent place in any well-stocked pantry.

Tips on cooking

Convenient and ready straight from the pack — blends into marinades, rubs, stews, drinks and sauces across every cuisine.

1
Simmer in sweetened milk for a comforting sago kheer.
2
Soak, then fry into sabudana khichdi with peanuts and potato.
3
Use as a natural thickener for soups and fruit compotes.
4
Shape into crisp tikkis for fasting days.
💡
Expert tip: Soak sago in just enough water to cover and leave it a few hours — get the water right and the pearls turn fluffy and separate rather than gluey.
