Ingredients and Health Benefits
Our Mango Oil Pickle features a variety of rich ingredients:
- Green Mangoes: High in vitamins and antioxidants. We use raw mango pieces and mango cubes to retain the fresh, tangy taste.
- Cold-Pressed Mustard Oil: Preserves the pickle and adds a distinct flavor. The consumption of mustard oil, especially quality mustard oil, is known for its health benefits.
- Spices: Enhance the taste and offer numerous health benefits. These include mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, ground fenugreek seeds, and Kashmiri chili powder. The spice mix also includes teaspoon methi seeds, teaspoon salt, and teaspoon turmeric powder.
Preparation and Preservation
- Mango Preparation: Cut large mangoes into pieces, including mango slices, raw mango pieces, and mango cubes. Ensure the mangoes are chopped uniformly for even pickling.
- Spice Mix: Blend spices like mustard seeds, yellow mustard seeds, ground turmeric, and red chili powder. This spice mix should be coarsely ground to release aromatic ingredients.
- Mixing: Combine mango pieces with the spice mix and salt. The mango mixture should be thoroughly mixed using a clean spoon or wooden spoon.
- Oil Infusion: Heat mustard oil to medium heat and mix it with the mango-spice blend. The heat mustard oil should be allowed to cool slightly before mixing to ensure the flavors meld perfectly.
- Fermentation: Store the mixture in a clean glass jar, dry glass jar, or ceramic container. Expose it to sunlight for a few days to develop the flavors. Ensure the jar is covered with a clean cloth or clean cotton cloth to allow for proper fermentation.
