The topic of Bedekar’s pickles brought back my childhood memories. Those good old days my younger days in Delhi, either one could buy Panipat’s Panchranga Achaar in a tin pack, or go to old Delhi and buy pickles of your choice from Chawri Bazaar, or make your own pickles at home which my mother used to, Or buy Bedekar’s pickles available in a bottle pack at many stores. A bottle of Bedekar’s pickles used to be a compulsory fixture on mother’s kitchen shelf, and we have grown up on various varieties of these.
Surprisingly, even after all these years, the brand and the product has survived, and the quality as well as the taste remains unchanged, my kids still love it! I, being more prone to more spicier and different types of pickles prefer Andhra type pickles and there are so many brands available now.
