    Pickle is one of the important items of our daily food. Pickling is one way to preserve seasonal vegetables during off seasons. Now a days, we get many varieties of pickles in the shops. But, preparing it ourselves gives us satisfaction.
    The important thing is use fenugreek powder and asafetida powder in all your pickles with out fail. That will increase your pickles flavour and life. My grand mother insisted on this very much. So Please follow for good results.
    1. There should be absolutely no water content in the spoons used to serve pickles or else it will produce fungus. ​
    2. Store pickles only in glass or jar. ​
    3. DO NOT STORE PICKLES IN PLASTIC OR STAINLESS STEEL CONTAINERS.
    4. For daily use, transfer it to a small container and use.​
