Feature :

Packaging of traditional pickles involves a high
cost due to presence of liquids like brine, oil
or vinegar. A new concept has been worked out
to make instant dry pickles packed in polythene
bags along with spices. Fully matured fresh raw
mangoes/limes are washed and cut into uniform
size, salt-cured and dried. Ground spices are
added along with cured dry fruit pieces and packed
in polythene bags. For reconstitution the mix
is soaked overnight in specified quantity of water
to get the pickle ready for use. Oil can be added
to taste.
