Indians precisely South Indians to be precise Andhras are fond of pickles. We love them very much. Every household will have them, if not prepare at least buy them from stores. They are very seasonal, like the end of the winter season we prepare lemon, tamarind fruit, tomato and red chilli. Summer is the season for mangoes. We prepare different varieties of pickles with mangoes.
Every time it is Chandra my sister-in-law takes care of these preparations. She only gets all necessary ingredients and does all the work. I enjoy them a lot, of course. This year I also started preparing them, my first trial is lemon pickling which is very easy. I tried them long with very less, 12, lemons. This year I bought 50 lemons and prepared it. This will last for one full year.
Whenever I feel my blood pressure is downing I can take one piece of it and chew. Advised by a doctor.
First, we have to mix it with turmeric powder and salt and keep it in a dry place, tightly packed. So that dust and moisture should not enter into it. We can mix all of them together and keep also but it does not taste fresh. Whenever want to have lemon chutney, just add tadka, chilli powder, and mix it well.
While selecting lemons we have to be very careful. Select lemons with thin skin and fresh looking ones. Thin skin lemons will have more juice in them. Pickle with more juicy fruit will long lost.
