Mango Pickle

Handcrafted in small batches during mango season, our Bihari Mango Pickle (Aam Ka Achaar) is a celebration of authentic flavors—made with raw green mangoes, mustard oil, and a bold mix of traditional spices like fennel, fenugreek, kalonji, turmeric, and asafoetida. It’s tangy, spicy, and brimming with rustic Bihar tradition.
