Whether you need your own home-cooked meals freeze-dried or want a selection of my ready-to-eat packets, this window ensures everything is packed, sealed, and ready to survive the journey without any last-minute stress. ### How My Process Works I handle the shipping and packing from my shop in Byculla, Mumbai. Here is the straightforward reality of how to get your essentials abroad: **1. Freeze-Drying Your Own Food** If you want to carry your specific home-cooked meals, bring them to my shop. I need a minimum of 2 kg of food. I will freeze-dry it, which gives it a shelf life of nine months without needing a fridge. This is perfect for students or travelers who want a taste of home that stays fresh. **2. Ready-to-Eat Packets** I have over 30 dishes available, including 17+ Jain and vegan options. These are zero-preservative meals that you just add hot water to. Since I need time to prepare and pack these, please place your order 10 days in advance. **3. International Courier & Packing** I do not just throw things in a box. I use 7-ply heavy-duty corrugated boxes and bubble wrap for metal utensils and cookers. For clothes and personal items, I use expert stuffing techniques inside vessels to save you volumetric weight. I work with carriers like DHL and FedEx, usually reaching major hubs like the USA, Canada, and the UK in about 3 days. **4. Vacuum Packing** For items like theplas, rotis, and parathas, I offer vacuum sealing. This keeps them fresh for 10 days during your travel and up to 30 days if you keep them in the fridge once you arrive. ### Important Things to Remember - **Customs:** Any local duty in the destination country is paid by the receiver, not me. These are local rules I cannot control. - **Frozen Items:** If I ship frozen goods (like Aamras), they may arrive slightly melted. Tell your receiver to put them straight into the freezer upon delivery. - **Pre-Order:** I cannot fulfill last-minute requests because I have to prioritize quality and proper packing. Plan for your trip and book at least 10 days early. ## About My Taste My Meal I started My Taste My Meal in Byculla to make sure students and travelers don't have to miss ghar ka khana while abroad.
