We offer a range of flavors from mild to spicy to sweet. Each product description clearly mentions the spice level, so you can choose according to your taste preference. You can also write to us on unigourmet2020@gmail.com.
How should I store the pickles?
Since our pickles come in packets, we encourage clients to open them up and refrigerate them. Most of our pickles will be okay for upto 6-8 months if stored well away from sunlight, heat or moisture. However, they may discolour due to the lack of preservatives so we highly recommend refrigeration in two weeks of receiving them.
How long do the pickles stay fresh?
Our pickles typically stay fresh for over 12 months in the fridge and upto 3 months outside. We strongly recommend refrigeration to retain freshness.
Do your products contain preservatives or chemicals?
Our products are 100% free from artificial preservatives, colours, and chemicals. We rely on natural ingredients, oil, and traditional techniques for preservation.
