Benifits of Healthy Indian pickles diet

6 Good Reasons why you must add healthy Indian pickles in your daily meal

Jillian Bell

Jillian Bell | May 24, 2017

Indian pickles are the epitome of creativity and good taste. They are widely eaten throughout the Indian subcontinent in a different form. Pickles have been seen to exist since the era of our grandparents. Often we see pickle jars kept over the terrace especially during the summer seasons. The overall taste of the food gets a kick when eaten with a pickle slice. Khichdi, chapatti, and rice are often consumed with pickles. The main reason why people eat them is to quench the need to have something sour and spicy. The pallet tickling taste of the vinegar complements the food that has been cooked. The peculiar amalgamation of oil, vegetable slices, vinegar, turmeric, salt, and spices is what healthy Indian pickles all about.

You can always have a couple of pickle slices for improving the food digestion. However, try to avoid pickle after every two to three days as it might lead to acid development in the body.

    Thanks for sharing – I really like pickles, and have been trying more and more “quick pickles” like in Korean cuisine recently. Indian pickles are interesting too!
