No chemicals since day one
Our story
The coast solved this problem four generations ago
Long before refrigeration, families along the Tamil Nadu and Kerala coast had one question: how do you keep the sea’s catch good for the weeks the boats are away?
The answer was never a chemical. It was sesame oil, spice roasted and crushed that morning, and a final splash of coconut vinegar, fermented from coconut water. That vinegar is the reason a bottle could sit on a shelf and still be worth opening a month later.
Coconut vinegar, last and off the heat
Fermented from coconut water. It gives the tang and does the keeping, which is why nothing else has to.
Spices roasted the same morning
Whole spices dry-roasted and crushed on the day. Nothing is bought pre-ground.
Deboned by hand, then slow-dried
The fish is checked by hand and dried before it ever meets a pan. That is what makes it cook dry.
