Citron Pickle is a traditional South Indian specialty made from the large, aromatic citron fruit known for its intense sourness and unique floral aroma. This pickle stands out for its bold, tangy flavor profile, which is enhanced by a medley of spices including red chili powder, fenugreek, mustard seeds, and a generous amount of gingelly oil. The fruit’s thick rind and juicy segments soak up the spices to create a complex and mouth-puckering taste experience. Often enjoyed with curd rice or idli, Citron Pickle is both refreshing and powerful in taste. Its distinct citrusy punch is beloved in Telugu and Tamil households, making it a treasured addition to traditional meals.
