Vadu Mango Pickle / Maavadu Pickle

Vadu mango is a baby mango. Baby mangoes are available in March only. So we can make vadu mango pickle in March only. It is a common pickle which can be prepared easily in just less than an hour and can be stored for about a year ( up to next season). Vadu mango with little stalk is good for pickle. Now the rates of the vadu mangoes are very high. We can use castor oil for vadu mango pickle. Heat produced by mango is controlled by castor oil. Salt and castor oil is the preservative of the pickle.
