Our story

Started as one woman's dream. Made by many hands.

RS Food Products was started by Neelam Verma to share the pickles and sharbats of Himachal with homes beyond the hills.

Along the way it became something bigger: a way for women in Sanet, District Solan, to learn, earn and stand on their own feet. They cut, sun-dry, mix and fill every jar by hand, in small batches, the way it's always been done at home.

You're not buying from a factory. You're buying from us. ✿

Picking buransh flowers from a tall tree
Climbing for buransh, every spring

A day in the kitchen

Real hands, real jars, real daylight

What we care about

Three words we live by

Like family

We talk to you like family, because that's how this started.

Honest

Real photos, real prices in rupees. We say what's in the jar and stop there.

From the hills

Galgal, lingad, lasoda, buransh, chukh. Our ingredients are the story.

The pahadi year

Everything has its season

  1. SpringBuransh flowers are picked straight off the trees for sharbat.
  2. Early summerLasoda, for just a few weeks. Then raw mangoes.
  3. MonsoonLingad (fiddlehead fern) is foraged from the damp hillsides.
  4. WinterGalgal goes out on the rooftop to sun-dry and slowly age.

When it's gone, it's gone until next year.
