They serve as both a compliment to the flavors and textures of the main course as well as a tasty digestive aid. In India, pickles are called “achaar” – they’re an ancient favorite, dating back about 4,000 years! In fact, it’s highly likely that the procedures and methods of pickling actually originated in India. After all, it’s an ideal way of preserving food for long journeys, cold winters in the North, and times of scarcity and famine.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThere are countless varieties of pickles in India. Each, in its own way serves to enhance the tastes and textures of a main course, a snack, an appetizer or a dessert, while at the same time encouraging good digestion. Each pickle can be made with an assortment of fruits, vegetables, nuts, dairy products, herbs and spices, reflecting the 6 tastes as described by Ayurveda, India’s ancient healing system. The six tastes are sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, astringent and salty.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBut of all of the pickles in India, it’s the Aam Ka Achaar – the Indian Mango Pickle – that takes the pickle-cake (so to speak)! By far, it’s the most popular and most beloved pickle of all. At Pure Indian foods, we make our Aam Ka Achaar from luscious green mangoes, aromatic, health-promoting Indian spices like turmeric, ginger, hing and black seed, and extra virgin olive oil, all slowly marinated to create a mouth-watering, blissfully delicious treat.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHEAT LEVEL: MEDIUM HOT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOur pickles are:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall Batch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocally Made\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCleanest Ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTreasured Family Recipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo chemical preservatives like sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo added colors, artificial flavors, sugar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this product organic?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not.

Is this normal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely! Traditional Indian mango pickle is made with the entire mango, including its seed. The hard, woody part you noticed is the shell of the mango seed, which adds a distinctive flavor to the pickle. While the soft seed inside of the hard shell is removed, the shell itself remains attached to the fruit. You can enjoy the mango fruit around the hard shell, but it should be discarded before eating. Leaving the hard shell is a part of the traditional preparation and ensures a rich, authentic taste in every bite of the pickle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eI tried Mango Pickle for the first time and found it very salty! Is this normal or did I get a bad batch?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndian mango pickle is traditionally made with a significant amount of salt. This not only enhances the flavor but also acts as a natural preservative, allowing the pickle to last longer without spoiling. Our recipe aims to stay authentic to traditional methods, which means the pickle is the traditional amount of saltiness. If you find the pickle too salty, we recommend eating it with other foods to balance the flavor. Pairing with foods such as plain rice, yogurt, or bread can help balance the saltiness. Please note that the recommended serving size is 1 tsp (5g), as Indian mango pickle is meant to be enjoyed in small quantities, unlike Western cucumber pickles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pure Indian Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52632373297463,"sku":"PKLM","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/5287\/4551\/files\/Mango-Pickle-Transparent-1.jpg?v=1783456116","url":"https:\/\/www.nutrimentboutique.com\/products\/indian-raw-mango-pickle-limited-edition-seasonal-item-9-oz","provider":"NutrimentBoutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
