Fresh Gunda – 1 lb

Description

Gunda, also known as Lasoda, is a small, green, round fruit commonly used in traditional Indian pickles and regional vegetable dishes. It’s especially popular in Gujarati and Rajasthani cuisine. Gunda has a naturally sticky pulp and a slightly tangy, mildly bitter flavor that pairs beautifully with bold Indian spices. Once cooked or pickled, its texture becomes soft and pleasantly chewy, making it a deliciously unique addition to your meals.

• Flavor Profile: Mildly sour, slightly bitter, and sticky with a firm outer skin.
• Common Uses: Traditional pickles (achar), dry vegetable stir-fries, and spiced side dishes.
• Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within 5–7 days. Wash and boil before cooking or pickling.

Tip: When making achar, lightly boil Gunda to soften, then mix with mustard oil, salt, and pickle spices. Don’t forget to remove the seed if it’s hard or large—your pickle will taste better and last longer!
