My process depends entirely on what’s fresh in the market—like fleshy Ladua kairi in summer or deep red winter chillies. This means my pickles are always at their peak flavour when they reach you, without relying on vinegar or chemical preservatives to extend shelf life. ### Why My Achaar Tastes Different Everything I make starts with raw, seasonal produce. When you order, you aren't getting a factory-made jar that sat on a shelf for months. You are getting produce that was hand-cut, sun-dried, and jarred with spices like mustard seeds, fennel, and cold-pressed mustard oil. ### My Signature Styles * **Summer Staples:** My raw mango (kairi) pickles are a year-round favourite. I use the Ladua variety for its thick, sour pulp and mix it with a secret masala blend that uses high-quality red Kashmiri chillies for that deep, natural colour. * **Winter Delights:** From stuffed Banarasi chillies to fresh amla preserved in mustard oil, winter is when my kitchen gets busy. My Chyawanprash is another labour of love, made with fresh amla, saffron, and 14 Ayurvedic spices. * **Health-First Options:** If you are watching your oil intake, try my oil-free lemon pickle or dry raw mango version. They are tangy, zestful, and perfect for travel. ### Customization Matters I understand that everyone has a different palate. Want less salt? Prefer jaggery over sugar? Need it spicy or mild? Just let me know when you order. My goal is to make something you truly enjoy eating, so I am always happy to adjust the recipe to suit your preferences. ## About Raina Agarwal I’m Raina.
