Dheu Pickle

Revisit the forgotten flavours of the mountains with our Dheu Pickle. Known as Monkey Fruit or Artocarpus lakoocha, Dheu is a prized wild treasure found in the lower Himalayan foothills. Our recipe honours this rare fruit by using traditional methods to capture its distinctive, tangy-sweet character.

Product Overview

Our Dheu Pickle is produced by Hillthrill Agro Processor Private Limited in the pristine Mandi District. We source wild-grown Dheu from the lush forests of the Kamrunag Valley and Chachyot region, ensuring every jar is packed with the "Exotic Pahari Sward" that only the hills can provide.

Key Features

• Artisanal Heritage: Handcrafted at our facility in Badhoo using recipes passed down through generations.

• Low-Intervention Processing: We prioritize natural production methods, allowing the fruit to cure slowly without harsh chemicals.

• Naturally Fermented: The characteristic tang is developed through natural fermentation, preserving the fruit's nutritional integrity.

• Locally Sourced: Supporting local mountain communities by foraging wild, fresh fruits directly from the Himachal landscape.

Flavour Profile

Aroma: Deeply fruity with a sharp, vinegary edge. Taste: A complex journey of intense sourness, a hint of natural sweetness, and the warming heat of Himalayan spices.

Serving Suggestions

• Traditional Pairing: Best enjoyed with local staples like Makki ki Roti or as a sharp contrast to rich, buttery dals.

• Flavour Booster: A small spoonful can transform a simple vegetable stir-fry or add a rustic touch to a modern cheese platter.
