Jackfruit Pickle

Jackfruit Pickle – The Bold Taste of Himalayan Tradition

From the terraced farms of the Himalayas comes a traditional delicacy that’s both earthy and irresistible — Jackfruit Pickle (Kathal Ka Achar). Known for its meaty texture and rich flavor, raw jackfruit has long been a pahadi favorite. At Kumaon Herbal, we’ve preserved this classic taste in its purest form — turning young, tender jackfruit into a pickle that’s bursting with spices, aroma, and Himalayan authenticity.

Made with sun-dried jackfruit chunks, cold-pressed mustard oil, Himalayan rock salt, and a blend of hand-roasted spices, this pickle captures the taste of home-cooked pahadi meals. Each bite offers the perfect balance of tangy, spicy, and umami — just the way our grandmothers made it.

Whether paired with parathas, dal-chawal, or curd rice, Kumaon Herbal’s Jackfruit Pickle adds a hearty, flavorful twist to every meal. It’s not just a condiment — it’s a spoonful of Himalayan heritage.
