Instant Ginger Pickle is one of the quickest and the easiest Indian style pickle recipes. It requires only 5 ingredients and just 25 minutes to get ready. This vegan and gluten-free pickle is one of the easiest pickle recipes on my blog.
This ginger pickle is the best accompaniment for dal, chaat, Punjabi chana masala, and the salads. Once you taste it there is a guaranty that you will make a batch of it every fortnight.
We are surely addicted to it in a good way. The zesty salt and lemon seasoning combined with the signature bitterness of ginger make this pickle really exciting!
The beauty of instant pickles is they do not require a lengthy and time taking process to get ready. Best for the novice pickle makers like me. The precise ingredient list and fewer process steps make me feel really confident about the entire pickle-making process.
Taste Of Ginger Pickle…
I know this instant ginger pickle looks really hot and spicy. But actually, it’s just the opposite. The heat and the bitterness of ginger are toned down by the sourness of lemon juice. You can actually eat it by the spoonful. And as the days pass by the flavor of this pickle matures and turns more and more delicious.Â
Best Time For Making…
Best time to make instant ginger pickle? During the summer season (May-June) or during the autumn season. These are the seasons when the tender ginger roots are easily available.
Most of the instant pickles are seasonal and have a shelf life of not more than 15 days. And I think that is the peculiarity which makes them more wanted.Â
