## About Artisanal Bihari Chutneys

### Ghar Ki Chutney, Ghar Ka Swaad

I make chutneys that taste like home - pura asli Bihari touch, bilkul ghar ki rasoi se (straight from the home kitchen). The recipes are old - passed down from nani-dadi, loaded with real flavors and pyar.

### What Makes Our Chutneys Special

- We don’t do mass production. Each jar comes from small batches, just like we’d make for our own family.
- Our chunky tomato garlic chutney is a family classic. It’s spicy, tangy, and you’ll see bits of tomato, lehsun (garlic), mirch (green chili), ginger, and curry leaves in every spoon.
- Slow-cooked in pure mustard oil for that bold, desi taste.

### How We Eat It

Versatile hai! Goes with paratha, poori, dal-chawal, and even Dhuska Chaat. Sometimes I just scoop it straight from the jar - no shame.

### What’s Inside The Jar

- Natural Bihari condiments only - no preservatives, no fake stuff.
- Handmade by women from Mithilanchal. Every jar is their kaam (work) and their love.
- Ingredients come from local farmers near Darbhanga, always fresh and seasonal.

Chutney ka taste simple hai - bold, spicy, tangy. Not everyone likes chunky chutney, but for those who do, yeh aapka jam hai (this is your jam).

## Meet your expert

[JhaJi](https://mytribe.in/jhajistore)

### 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.
