Every vegetable is hand-cut and sun-dried for 5 to 7 days, the same way my dadi did in Bihar. By using cold-pressed mustard oil and hand-ground spices, I ensure each batch stays fresh and full of that 'ghar ka swaad' without using a single drop of artificial preservatives. When I started Khat Mitthi, my goal wasn't just to make food; it was to preserve a way of life. In a world full of mass-produced, chemically preserved jars, I wanted to bring back the patience and love that goes into making a real achaar. My process is simple but time-consuming. I personally source farm-fresh produce and spend days sun-drying ingredients to ensure natural shelf life. I don’t believe in adding vinegar or sodium benzoate to speed things up. If you look closely at my jars, you’ll see the texture of hand-cut vegetables and the richness of spices that are ground at home, not bought from a factory shelf. ### Why my pickles are different: * **Small Batches:** I make everything in limited quantities so that you receive fresh products, not jars that have been sitting in a warehouse for months. * **No Preservatives:** You get the honest taste of vegetables and spices, just like you’d make in your own kitchen. * **Authentic Bihari Flavours:** My recipes are inherited. From the sharp tang of our lemon pickle to the deep, earthy spice of our Bharwa Lal Mirch, every jar represents a specific memory from my childhood. I treat every order as if I am packing it for my own family. Whether you are looking for a simple jar of mango pickle to pair with your daily dal-chawal or a curated gift hamper for a festival, you are getting something made with real intent and heart. ## About Khat-Mitthi Hi, I’m the face behind Khat Mitthi. I started this journey to bring the pure, unadulterated flavors of my childhood kitchen in Bihar to homes across India. It’s not just about selling pickles—it’s about sharing the warmth of my family’s traditions with you.
