Tips & Secrets
- Removing the seeds completely is the absolute secret to creating enough space for the masala stuffing.
- Mustard oil must be cooled completely after heating to maintain the vibrant red color of the chilies.
- Always use 'Amchur' (Dry mango powder) for that authentic tang that defines Banarasi style pickles.
- Ensure the chilies are submerged in oil at all times; exposure to air will cause premature spoilage.
