Lapsi Pickle (Hog Plum Pickle)
Lapsi, or Hog Plum, is a fruit cherished in South and Southeast Asia for its intense sourness and fibrous flesh. This pickle captures that unique character perfectly. The raw, green hog plums are typically chopped or sliced and then cured in a robust blend of mustard oil, red chili, fenugreek, turmeric, and other spices.
The pickling process slightly softens the fruit while allowing it to absorb the fiery and savory notes of the masala. Each piece delivers a powerful, mouth-puckering sourness upfront, followed by the warm heat of spices and the rich taste of the oil. The fibrous texture adds a pleasant chew. This pickle is a bold accompaniment to rice, flatbreads, and curd, loved by those who appreciate intense, sour flavors.

Intensely Tangy & Sour Flavor: Hog plum provides a sharp, refreshing sourness that is more pronounced than in many other fruit pickles.
Distinctive Fibrous Texture: The fruit's natural fibers remain, giving the pickle a unique, substantial chew that is part of its charm.
Perfect Balance of Spice & Oil: The potent sourness is beautifully balanced by the savory heat of the masala and the richness of the oil.
