Frequently Asked Questions
Can we change the pickles in the Sample Pack?
No. We have prepared these assorted packs to include the various flavors we had to offer. We understand that the packs don't have all the flavors yet. We'll continue to launch new packs in the future and you will see them on this page when they are ready.
Quantity of Pickles in the Sample Pack seems low. How can I order larger jars?
We prepared the sample packs for tasting purposes. The idea is that you can try all the flavors together once, select which ones you like better and then order only those in larger jars of 250g or 500g. If you order 1kg or more pickles, you can use JHAJI25 for 25% off on your order.
What if I don't like a few of these pickles?
Pickles are prepared uniquely in Mithilanchal and you may or may not like the taste or spice level in every Achaar. We launched this sample pack so that you don't end up spending money on a pickle, that you end up not liking later. Sample packs are a great way to discover the many flavors we have to offer, discover your favorites and then order them later.
What if my order is missing, or I receive a leaking or broken shipment?
Usually, we deliver your pickles within 5-7 days of placing an order. You will receive prompt notifications on email and SMS as the order's status changes during transit.
In case you don't receive it within a week, you can contact us on Whatsapp and a teammate will help you track and receive the order promptly.
If you receive a shipment that has leaked, contact our team on Whatsapp and they'll help you through it. For a broken shipment, we request you to click a picture and safely discard the jar. We'll send you a replacement.
I haven't tried Bihari Pickles. What may I not like about them?
This is a great question. You may want to know that all of our pickles are prepared in Mustard Oil, which has a characteristic and relatively strong aroma. This is a common ingredient in most East Indian flavors, but it may catch you by surprise if you haven't had this earlier.
On another note, the pickles at JhaJi Store are usually spicy which stems from the tradition at Kalpana and Uma's home. If you do not like spice at all, you may want to consider exclusively the Sweet and Tangy Pickles at JhaJi Store.
How do you make these pickles?
All pickles are made using traditional recipes in Darbhanga, the heart of Mithilanchal in Bihar. The spices, fruits and vegetables used in the pickles come from local farmers and traders.
Our production team is made up mostly of women from a nearby village called Thalwara. We also encourage women to bring along their sons, daughters, husbands or sisters-in-law to work along with them which ensures a comfortable income for the household in Darbhanga.
