How our Tamarind Pickle is made

Creating our Tamarind Pickle is a labor of love that captures the essence of tamarind's tartness. It all begins with the careful selection of premium tamarind, known for its natural tangy flavor. Tamarind pods are meticulously processed to extract the pulp, which forms the heart of the pickle.

A secret spice blend, carefully crafted with cumin, mustard seeds, red chili powder, asafoetida, and other spices, is introduced to the tamarind pulp. This blend brings depth and complexity to the pickle, enhancing the tartness of tamarind.

High-quality jaggery, with its subtle sweetness, is added to the spice blend, creating a perfect balance between tangy and sweet flavors. The tamarind pulp is then gently marinated with this secret spice and jaggery blend, allowing the flavors to meld and develop, resulting in a harmonious and mouthwatering profile.

The marinated tamarind undergoes a slow pickling process, during which it absorbs the essence of the spices, transforming into a tangy delight. Once it reaches its peak flavor, the Tamarind Pickle is thoughtfully bottled, capturing the essence of tamarind, the secret spice blend, jaggery, and salt. It's ready to infuse your meals with a burst of tangy goodness, reflecting our commitment to quality and flavor innovation.
