Authentic Spicy and Zesty Pickles
For those who crave a bold, fiery kick. My spicy pickles are handmade using fresh, organic ingredients to bring that traditional 'maa ke hath ka swaad' straight to your table.
My Lehsun ka Achaar is a true delight for anyone who loves garlic. I use fresh, whole cloves of garlic and a blend of aromatic spices to create this bold and flavourful pickle. It is perfect with hot parathas or simple dal chawal.
For those who love a bit of spice, I make this Stuffed Hari Mirchi Achaar. Each green chilli is carefully slit and filled with a tangy masala mix before being pickled. It has a wonderful crunch and a fiery kick.
A zesty and healthy blend of Amla, Adrak, and Mirchi (gooseberry, ginger, and chilli). This pickle is packed with flavour and the natural goodness of its ingredients, making it a perfect, tangy addition to your winter meals.
This is another one of my nutritious winter specials, combining Amla, Garlic, and Mirchi. The tanginess of the amla, the pungency of garlic, and the heat from the chillies create a powerful and delicious flavour profile.
This is my special Karonda and Hari Mirchi ka Achaar, a unique combination. The tartness of the karonda (Bengal currant) pairs wonderfully with the heat of green chillies, creating a truly memorable flavour.
My Kachi Haldi, Lehsoon, Adrak, Mirchi ka Achaar is a powerhouse of health and taste. Made with fresh turmeric, garlic, ginger, and chillies, this pickle is an immunity booster and a delicious condiment, available in various sizes.
This is a closer look at my Lehsoon ka Achaar, a spicy and earthy pickle made with raw garlic bulbs. I use very basic ingredients to let the true flavour of the garlic shine through, making it a perfect partner for any Indian meal.
About this collection
When I make my garlic pickle, I peel every bulb by hand. This ensures the garlic stays crunchy and flavourful instead of turning into a mushy paste. It is a labor-intensive process, but it makes all the difference when you pair a piece of crisp garlic with hot parathas.
Traditional Methods, Real Ingredients
I believe that pickles should be good for you. That is why I never use artificial vinegar or Sodium Bezoate. Instead, I rely on time-tested preservation methods using raw Kachi Ghani mustard oil, which acts as a natural preservative and gives the pickles their authentic, punchy character.
The Spicy Range
My spicy and zesty collection focuses on bold flavors that cut through the richness of daily meals:
- Lehsun (Garlic): I use whole garlic cloves rather than paste to maintain texture. It is pungent, earthy, and perfectly balanced with hand-ground spices like Fenugreek and Nigella seeds.
- Hari Mirchi (Green Chilli): I use fresh, green chillies that provide a clean heat. The stuffed variety is particularly popular because the masala stays packed inside, giving you a burst of flavor in every bite.
- Seasonal Specials: I love experimenting with produce that isn't always available, like Karonda (Bengal currant) or fresh Kachi Haldi (raw turmeric). These are limited-batch items, made only when the season is right.
Why Small Batches Matter
I keep my production small to ensure every jar is fresh. Whether it is the zesty ginger-chilli mix or the fiery stuffed red chillies, you get a high density of solid ingredients, not just oil and gravy. This is food made with care, the way it was meant to be, ensuring every spoonful adds something special to your dal-chawal or morning breakfast.
Mommade
I started 'Mommade' at 75 because I believe food should be pure and connect us to our roots. Every batch of these spicy pickles is made in my own kitchen, using the same recipes my mother taught me. There are no preservatives here, just ingredients you can trust.
