Vusiri Pickle
Indian gooseberry (amla) pickle — bright, sour and rich in vitamin C. Sun-cured the old-fashioned way, slow-tempered in cold-pressed sesame oil, and bottled by hand in our village kitchen. Best enjoyed with hot rice and a generous spoon of ghee.
Authentic Vusiri Pickle
Vusiri Pickle is Andhra's pantry powerhouse — Indian gooseberries (amla), famously rich in vitamin C, cured with red chilli, mustard and cold-pressed sesame oil. Our Vusiri Pickle is handcrafted in Tanuku by a four-generation family using the same slow methods our grandmothers swore by. Bright, fiercely sour and deeply savoury, it is the kind of pickle that brings a meal alive with one small spoonful.
What makes our Vusiri Pickle special
We use firm, fresh amla that we gently steam to soften, then segment by hand. The pieces are folded into a hand-pounded masala of Guntur red chilli powder, mustard, fenugreek and rock salt, and slow-cured in cold-pressed sesame oil. No machinery, no shortcuts. Our Vusiri Pickle preserves the gooseberry's signature sour bite and the natural vitamin C amla is universally known for.
Flavour profile & experience
Expect a sharp, mouth-puckering sourness that opens the palate, followed by red chilli's steady warmth and mustard's gentle pungency. Amla has its own bittersweet finish — a clean, slightly astringent note that lingers pleasantly. Cold-pressed sesame oil rounds the Vusiri Pickle with nutty richness. It is the most refreshing pickle in our range — sour, bright and oddly satisfying after a heavy meal.
How to enjoy Vusiri Pickle
A piece of Vusiri Pickle alongside hot rice and ghee is the classic combination. It pairs beautifully with curd rice, dal-rice and khichdi, and brings welcome brightness to a heavy thali. Many enjoy it with parathas or even straight off the spoon as a daily wellness habit, thanks to amla's well-known vitamin C content.
