Authentic Homemade Pickles and Spice Blends in South Bengaluru
Experience the true taste of home with my small-batch pickles, traditional spice powders, and masalas, all prepared with the same care I give my own family kitchen.
This is my classic homemade mango pickle, slowly maturing in a traditional glass jar. I make it just once a year using fresh, raw mangoes and a family recipe, ensuring an authentic taste without any artificial preservatives.
A glimpse into the heart of my biryani masala. I handpick and roast whole spices like star anise, mace, cardamom, and dried chillies to create a fragrant and completely natural spice blend from scratch.
A close-up of my tangy and spicy Amla pickle, also known as nellikai uppinakayi. Each piece of Indian gooseberry is coated in a rich, hand-ground masala, offering a perfect balance of flavours.
My signature homemade sambar powder, freshly ground and ready to be packed. I use a traditional recipe with roasted lentils and whole spices, which gives it a rich aroma and taste you won't find in store-bought powders.
From fresh raw mangoes to the final mix, this is the story of how I make my annual batch of mango pickle. It's a labour of love, all done by hand to ensure the authentic taste of home.
A proud moment for me, holding my winner's certificate on the sets of Suvarna Super Star. This recognition fuels my passion for bringing authentic, homemade food to more people.
About Featured
I don't keep bulk inventory. Every jar of mango pickle or packet of biryani masala is prepared only after you order, so what you receive is always fresh, never sitting on a shelf for months.
When you choose my pickles or spice blends, you aren't just buying groceries. You are getting the exact same masalas I use in my own kitchen in South Bengaluru.
Why "From Scratch" Matters Most store-bought masalas use fillers like rice flour or corn starch to bulk up the weight. I don't. When you buy my Sambar powder or Biryani masala, you are getting pure, slow-roasted spices ground to the perfect texture. Because they are so potent, you will find yourself using 30% less than you would with a commercial packet.
The Process My pickles follow the traditional seasonal cycle. I source raw mangoes and amla during the peak season, wash them, and sun-dry them properly to remove moisture without using chemicals. The preservation happens naturally through high-quality groundnut or gingelly oil and the right balance of salt. I never use vinegar, artificial colours, or sodium benzoate.
Common Questions
- How long do they last? If you keep the pickle jar moisture-free and use a dry spoon, they stay fresh for 6 to 12 months.
- Are they spicy? I aim for authentic, balanced flavours, not mass-market extra spicy. If you want to adjust the spice level for a kid-friendly meal, just let me know when you place your order.
I deliver across Bannerghatta, Arekere, JP Nagar, and surrounding areas. If you miss the taste of real, additive-free food, I am just a message away.
