Vrat Ka Nimbu Achaar

Made with Mustard Oil | Gluten Free | Vegan | Made with Sendha Namak

For many families, vrat meals were never complete without a spoonful of lemon pickle. It was the spark of tang that lifted plain aloo or sabudana khichdi, the little side that made a thali feel festive even on fasting days. Mothers and grandmothers prepared it with care, knowing that its sharpness and gentle sweetness would bring balance to the otherwise simple dishes of vrat. A jar of nimbu achar on the table meant flavour, tradition, and comfort all at once.

Tangy, bright, and perfectly balanced, our Vrat Ka Nimbu Achar is crafted especially for fasting days. Fresh lemons are sliced and cured with sendha namak, sweetened gently with mishri powder, and finished with a hint of black pepper. The result is a pickle that is light, zesty, and fasting-friendly, while still carrying the depth of flavour that makes achar a staple on every Indian table.

At The 1970 Shop, we prepare Vrat Ka Nimbu Achar in the same careful way. No refined salt, no artificial colours, no preservatives. Just fresh lemons, clean spices, and the slow curing that gives achar its character.

The vrat lemon pickle is the way homes always made it - simple, pure, and full of zest, adding brightness to every vrat thali and warmth to everyday meals.
