🧄 The Golden Pearl: Why Baya India’s Traditional Garlic Pickle in Mustard Oil is a Flavor & Wellness Essential! ✨
Share
There is something deeply magnetic about the aroma of slow-cooked garlic. In our Traditional Garlic Pickle (Lahsun ka Achar), the sharp, pungent bite of raw garlic is transformed into a mellow, savory, and almost buttery delight. At Baya India, we don't believe in industrial processing. We treat our garlic like a precious herb—peeling it with care, curing it under the sun, and preserving it in the finest mustard oil to create a jar that is as medicinal as it is delicious. 🏺🧄🔥
The Alchemy of the Sun-Mellowed Garlic 🏆
Garlic requires a patient hand to move from "sharp" to "savory." Here is how we craft our signature golden pearls:
Sourcing Premium Small-Clove Garlic: We prefer the smaller, more potent "Desi" garlic cloves. These varieties are packed with more natural oils and Allicin, giving you a deeper flavor and better health benefits. 🧄✅
The Traditional Sun-Cure: After peeling, the garlic cloves are tossed in a blend of spices and placed under the bright Indian Sun. This solar-cooking process softens the cloves' texture while removing the raw "sting," leaving behind a rich, umami-filled core. ☀️🌬️
The Pungent Marriage: The sun-warmed cloves are then submerged in 100% Pure Mustard Oil. The oil acts as a smoky carrier, infusing the garlic with the warmth of chillies and the earthiness of fenugreek. ☀️🏺
The Aging Process: Unlike mass-produced pickles, our garlic pickle is allowed to sit and "mature." Over time, the cloves absorb the mustard oil, turning into soft, flavor-packed pearls. ⏳💎
✨ The Baya India Standard: Pure & Honest ☀️
Our Garlic Pickle is a "Clean Label" champion—offering you a powerhouse of flavor with zero chemical shortcuts.
The Baya India Difference:
100% Pure Mustard Oil: We use only mustard oil. Its natural antibacterial properties work in harmony with garlic to keep the pickle fresh and heart-healthy. 🟡🛡️
Mellowed Heat: Our traditional process ensures you can enjoy the flavor of garlic without the overwhelming "garlic breath" or digestive heat. 🧄👌
Normal Salt for Bold Balance: We use normal salt to heighten the savory notes and ensure a clean, traditional taste profile. 🧂🚫
Zero Synthetic Vinegar: No lab-made acids or liquid preservatives. The natural power of the sun, salt, and premium oil does all the work. 🚫🧪
