### My story

Namaste ji, hum JhaJi Store waale. Kahani shuru hui jab Kalpana ji ne socha, ab kuch apne liye karein. Pandemic mein, jab sab ruk gaya, humne apne Mithila ka asli swaad duniya tak pahunchane ka socha. Ghar ki kitchen se shuru, Shark Tank tak pahunche. Aaj, hum sirf achaar nahi, yaadein bechte hain. Humare saath 70 se zyada gaon ki mahilayein bhi apne pairon pe khadi ho gayi hain. JhaJi Store - ghar se door rehne walon ke liye ek yaad.

### My work

- **Mithila Homemade Pickles & Chutneys**: Banate hain Lal Mirch Bharua, Kathal, Aam, Oal, Amra, Nimbu, Amla, aur special tomato garlic chutney. Makhana kheer mix bhi hai.
- **Ghar ke Aangan ka Swaad**: Sab kuch haath se banta hai, nani-dadi ki recipes, chhote batch mein. Sun-dried, bina preservatives, sirf salt, oil aur patience.
- **Seasonal Ingredients, Local Flavours**: Kalkatiya mango pickle Darbhanga ka hai, sab kuch Bihar ki mitti se. Taste aata hai nature ke rhythm se, cold storage se nahi.
- **Ghar Ki Yaadein**: Ek spoonful se dal-chawal bhi khaas ho jata hai. Jo log ghar se door hain, unke liye ek memory.
