Pickles are a much-loved accompaniment to meals across India, and are not only appreciated for their tangy taste but also for their health benefits. Among them, pickles made from natural vinegar are gaining popularity for their purported health benefits. In Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, a group of farmers under the banner of Family Farmer is promoting the production of these natural vinegar pickles, which offer a fusion of taste and well-being.
Arendra, founder of the Family Farmer group, said their approach stands out in a market saturated with mass-produced vinegar stored in plastic drums. They grow sugar cane naturally and use its juice to ferment the vinegar in traditional clay jars, he explained. This natural process, he said, preserves the goodness of the ingredients without the industrial additives typically found in commercially available products.
