Some flavours are powerful on their own—but when paired thoughtfully, they become unforgettable. Neek Ginger–Garlic Pickle is one such creation: a rare and striking combination that transforms two everyday kitchen essentials into a long-lasting, deeply flavourful delicacy.
A Truly Unique Pickle Combination
While ginger and garlic are staples in Indian cooking, they are rarely celebrated together as the heroes of a pickle. Neek brings this bold pairing to the forefront, allowing both ingredients to shine without overpowering each other.
Ginger offers sharp warmth and a lingering bite, while garlic brings depth, aroma, and natural sweetness once sun-dried. Together, they create a pickle that is robust yet balanced, intense yet surprisingly likeable.
Crafted with Traditional Precision
Neek Ginger–Garlic Pickle is prepared using time-tested methods and carefully selected ingredients:
-
Fresh ginger and garlic, cleaned and cut to retain texture
-
Yellow mustard, lending strength and character
-
Five spices (Panch Phoron) for layered complexity
-
A special homemade masala, crafted in-house
-
Generous mustard oil drizzles, essential for flavour and preservation
The pickle is sun-dried, allowing moisture to evaporate naturally while the oil and spices seep deep into the ginger and garlic, mellowing their sharpness and enhancing their richness.
Preserved to Mature Gracefully
Thanks to traditional sun-drying and mustard oil preservation, this pickle boasts an impressive shelf life of 5–10 years when kept away from direct contact with water. Over time, the flavours evolve—the garlic softens, the ginger becomes more rounded, and the spices blend into a beautifully mature profile.
Spicy, Aromatic & Comfortingly Versatile
Neek Ginger–Garlic Pickle delivers a warm, spicy kick that is both comforting and addictive. It pairs effortlessly with rice and wheat dishes—from dal-chawal and curd rice to rotis, parathas, and plain steamed rice. Even a simple meal feels elevated with just a spoonful.
Why This Pickle Stands Apart
What makes this pickle truly special is its simplicity paired with courage. Using ginger and garlic as the main ingredients is unconventional, yet deeply rewarding. The absence of fruits or vegetables allows the spices, oil, and aromatics to take center stage—creating a pickle that is bold, purposeful, and unforgettable.
A Jar of Strength and Character
Neek Ginger–Garlic Pickle is more than a condiment—it is a celebration of intense flavours done right. Carefully sun-dried, richly spiced, and patiently preserved, it proves that even the most familiar ingredients can become extraordinary when treated with respect and tradition.
For those who enjoy distinctive, spice-forward pickles with lasting depth, this is a rare classic—powerful, enduring, and unmistakably Neek.
