RECIPE: How we make the Bihari Jimikand Pickle
Our unique Suran ka Achar recipe is inspired from the traditional Bihari recipe handed to us over generations.
- To start the pickling process, Oal is washed and peeled and then kept out in the sun to dry.
- Once dry, it’s grated. The same quantity of green chilies, and ginger as the Oal is minced into small pieces.
- The three main ingredients are mixed together. Lemon Juice, Amchoor, Salt, and Turmeric are added before the mixture is left in the sun to dry for a day or two.
- Spices are ground, mixed, and roasted before being added to the pickle.
- The pickle is left in the sun to dry for a 5-7 day period and then stored in Martabaan / glass jars.
- This pickle is also called, Oal Barabar, meaning that the pickle has equal quantities of Oal, Green Chilli, and Ginger bringing out a unique flavor, taste, and texture.
Customer Reviews
I purchased the sample pickel and received the same within 5 days. the pickel were very tasty. I have informed my feedback to Ms Rashmi Jha over phone. My suggestion is to bring down the price of pickel upto Rs. 500 per kg. At present price is very very high i.e. 1000 to 1200 per kg. I think this is No. 1 pickel in India by SWAD and also Very costly in price which are not affordable by common people of UP and BIHAR.
We are glad that you liked the taste of pickles .
