What Is Bhatmas? Nepal’s Favorite Protein Snack

Bhatmas is the Nepali word for soybean, and in Nepal it refers specifically to roasted or fried soybeans eaten as a crunchy snack or used as a key ingredient in traditional dishes. Bhatmas is one of the most popular and affordable sources of protein in Nepal — eaten daily as a tea-time snack, packed into khaja sets, and served as chakhna (snack with drinks). The soybeans are typically dry-roasted or deep-fried until crunchy, then seasoned with salt, chili, and spices. Both black and white soybean varieties are popular in Nepal, each with a slightly different flavor and texture.

What Is Bhatmas Sadeko?

Bhatmas sadeko is one of the most iconic Nepali dishes — a spicy, tangy soybean salad made by tossing roasted bhatmas with mustard oil, green onions, fresh chili, garlic, ginger, salt, and timur (Sichuan pepper). It is a staple of the Nepali khaja plate and one of the most searched Nepali recipes online. Our bhatmas sadeko products bring this classic dish ready-to-eat or easy to prepare at home.

Types of Bhatmas We Carry

• Roasted bhatmas (dry) — crunchy, nutty, and lightly salted; the classic snacking variety
• Fried bhatmas — deep-fried for extra crunch and richness
• Black soybean (kalo bhatmas) — earthier, nuttier flavor; considered more nutritious
