About Unique & Regional Pickles
Since these pickles rely on seasonal, fresh produce like bamboo shoots and lotus stems, I make them in very limited, small batches. If you see them in stock, grab them while they last, because once the fresh supply ends, you will have to wait until the next season.
Traditional Methods, Rare Ingredients
I believe that true flavour comes from patience and tradition. Unlike mass-produced jars you find in shops, these regional specialties are made using age-old techniques my family has trusted for generations. I use cold-pressed mustard oil and sun-dry my ingredients, which locks in the natural taste without needing any artificial chemicals or heat acceleration.
Why These Flavours Stand Out
- Lotus Stem (Bhen): The unique, lace-like pattern of the lotus stem holds the masala perfectly. It offers a satisfying crunch that makes it a favourite side for dal and rice.
- Bamboo Shoot: This is a true regional specialty. The natural, tangy flavour of fresh bamboo shoots brings a taste of the hills directly to your kitchen.
- Pahari Laal Mirch: Sourced from the mountains, these red chillies deliver a deep, smoky heat that is quite different from your everyday chilli pickle.
Fresh and Chemical-Free
Everything you see here is prepared in small, controlled batches in my home kitchen in New Delhi. I avoid all artificial colours and preservatives to ensure that every jar tastes exactly like home. Whether you are looking to spice up your lunch or trying something new to pair with your dinner, these pickles offer a quality you can trust. Since everything is made to order, drop me a message, and I can let you know exactly what is fresh and ready for delivery.
