Kashmiri chillies are bought whole, then stemmed, deseeded and ground by the group so that nothing unknown goes into the mill. The point of this chilli is colour — it turns a gravy deep red while adding only mild heat.
Packed by Annapurna Mahila Samiti under its own FSSAI licence. Best before dates and batch codes are printed on the pack.
Standards
Four things we do not compromise on, because a handmade product is judged on all of them.
Pickles are cured with oil and salt, not vinegar and stabilisers. Bakery is dispatched within a week of baking.
Reactive and natural dyes only, printed and dried in shade so the colour bonds to the fibre instead of sitting on it.
Six weeks for cold-process soap, four weeks for pickle, three weeks for lemon. Shortening these is how a handmade product is made to look handmade.
Honey, ghee and spices are tested for adulteration before packing, and the report is available on request.
Still unsure? Message us on WhatsApp and a person will answer, usually within a few hours.
Ask about this productNo. Kashmiri chilli is bought for colour. If you want heat, add a separate hot chilli powder alongside it.
Women-led Self Help Groups registered under NRLM, working from their own villages. Every product page names the group, the village and the district it came from, and you can read the full group story on its own page.
The group quotes a price that covers its material cost and the wage it wants to pay. We add packing, courier and our commission on top and show the split. Groups can change their quote at any time, and we do not negotiate it downwards.
Most food and personal care items are dispatched within 48 hours and delivered in 4–7 days. Large textile items such as quilts are stitched to order and take 7–10 days. The product page shows the estimate for the item you are looking at.

“I bought the mango pickle expecting the usual jar. It is properly hot and the oil cap is real mustard oil. I have ordered it three times now and sent the honey to my mother.”

“We ordered 120 hampers for Diwali and asked for the card to be customised. They came in jute boxes, on time, and nobody threw the packaging away.”
