Spices are mostly sourced locally from farmers, and bazar samitis in Samastipur. We buy whole spices and clean, roast, ground them in our kitchen-factory.
RECIPE: The Process of Preparation
starts with the mangoes arriving early 6 AM from the farms to our kitchen-factory. They are mostly plucked the last evening. The first step is sort out the mangoes for any pieces that are damaged, or have ripened, and not good for pickling.
After sorting, the mangoes are cut into small pieces, typically 1 inch in size. And immediately dipped into water at normal temperature. Moreover, it’s washed 2-3 times in fresh water before being kept out in the sun to dry for 3 hours.
After a few hours, the cut mango pieces are moved into the pickling vessel, and 2 spices are added – Salt & Turmeric. This mixture is left untouched for 24 hours till the moisture from within the mango pickle seeps out. The cut pieces are now ready for the actual process of pickling.
A batch of masala is prepared, mixing all the spices in their appropriate proportions. And added to these cut pieces covered in salt & turmeric, along with mustard oil. Everything is mixed well.
The pickle now needs to be sun-dried for 8-10 days before it’s ready to be stored in martabans. It’s made sure that the top of pickle, when it’s inside in the martabaan, has an inch thick layer of oil to protect it.
Some of the traditional ways this pickle is enjoyed in Mithila includes with Khichdi, Choora Dahi (Flattened Rice with Curd), Dal-Chawal, Poha, Paratha, Poori Sabzi, and with most Indian dishes.

I have ordered Jhaji's pickles a couple of times. I am very happy to share that the taste of mango pickles is so authentic and homelike that it reminds me of my childhood when my mother use to
make pickles. In this fast paced world when everything can be made instantly the jhaji pickles make you realise that still there are handful of people who
want to dedicate their full time in the preparation of pickles as it has to be.They make their customers feel like they are their family.Thank you Jhaji pickles for keeping this one thing in our lives which makes us believe old process is gold.
Namaste Pushpam Ji 🙏

Aaj ke instant zamane mein bhi agar hum aapko ghar jaisa, dhairya aur pyaar se bana swaad de pa rahe hain, toh samajhiye hamari mehnat safal ho gayi
Aap jaise customers ke pyaar aur bharose se hi hum iss parampara ko zinda rakh pa rahe hain.
'Old process is truly gold' - aur hum waada karte hain ki ise humesha zinda rakhenge.
Dil se dhanyawaad 🙏
~ Aapka apna, JhaJi Store
Not the authentic mango pickle, we used to eat in our childhood.
Namaste Mohit Ji 🙏
Dhanyawaad aapke feedback ke liye.
Humein khed hai ki aapko wahi bachpan wala authentic swaad mehsoos nahi hua. Taste personal hota hai, aur hum har feedback ko dil se lete hain.
Aapke liye hum suggest karenge ki aap Sookha Aam ka Achaar ya Mithila Special Mango Pickle try karein - inmein kai logon ko wahi purana swaad mila hai.
Hamesha behtar banne ki koshish rahegi

Taste is good but very dry
Namaste Sakshi Ji,
Thank you for your feedback! 😊
We’re glad you liked the taste. The dryness might be due to less oil in the top layer - please give the jar a gentle stir, as sometimes oil settles at the bottom. Still, we'll surely note this and ensure better balance in future batches.
Appreciate you sharing this with us!

You are saying “ Mithila Special Mango Pickle | Bihari Aam ka Aachar” doing business on the name of Mithila and Bihar but in reality you are giving the working opportunity (JOB) to other states people. I thought you are promoting Bihar and biharis but now I realise,I was wrong.
Namaste Pushkar Ji🙏
