## About Artisanal Mithila Pickles (Achar)

### Why These Pickles Hit Different

I started JhaJi because ghar ka khaana (home food) just hits different, especially when you’re far from Bihar. For me, every jar is more than just achar - it’s pure nostalgia, made with the same traditional Maithil recipes my nani-dadi used.

### How I Make It

- No factory stuff here, bas ghar ki rasoi (just home kitchen). All my pickles are handmade in small batches by the women from our community in Mithila.
- Sun-dried Mithila achar: Each batch takes its own sweet time, drying in the dhoop (sun) for 10-15 days. That’s where the flavour really comes from.
- Homemade mustard oil pickles - I use only local veggies and fruits, straight from Bihar ke khet (fields), dunked in pure sarson ka tel (mustard oil).
- Spices? I roast and grind them fresh at home. No ready-made masalas.
- No artificial stuff, no preservatives. Only sun, oil, and spices.

### Some Flavours You’ll Find

- Authentic Bihari mango pickle: Classic spicy mango, sweet-sour khatt-meetha, grated kuccha mango, and dry stuffed aam.
- Unique picks like jackfruit (kathal), stuffed red chilli, amra (hog plum), grated oal (yam), and amla (gooseberry). Some are seasonal, so they’re not always in stock.

### Packaging That Travels

Choose glass jars for that old-school feel, or lighter, travel-safe plastic jars if you move around a lot. Both keep your achar safe and fresh.

### Best Ways To Eat

Dal-chawal, roti, paratha, poha, or even just bread - my achar goes with pretty much anything. If you’re missing home, you’ll know the feeling.

### 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.
