Avakai Pickle Mango (1KG)

Description

Avakai pickle mangoes are firm, unripe fruits chosen specifically for their sharp sourness and sturdy flesh. They are grown in Salem without chemical sprays or artificial ripening and reach you clean and adulteration-free. Raw mango is naturally high in vitamin C and tangy fruit acids traditionally valued for aiding digestion. Their dense texture is essential for avakai, the fiery Andhra pickle that must stay firm in oil and spice. Cut into cubes with the hard shell intact, they soak up mustard, chilli and gingelly oil beautifully. A well-made jar of avakai keeps for many months and lifts the simplest curd rice or dosa. These mangoes are equally good for other sour-mango dishes like thokku and pachadi. Because pickling depends on firm, tart fruit, freshness at packing makes a real difference. They are harvested seasonally and dispatched soon after picking. Order a kilo to make robust, homemade avakai the traditional way.
