{"product_id":"chamba-chukh","title":"Chamba Chukh","description":"\u003cp\u003eChamba Chukh is a centuries-old chilli chutney handmade by women artisans in the Chamba valley of Himachal Pradesh — the very region the recipe is named after. Fresh red and green chillies are slow-cooked in pure mustard oil with traditional Himalayan spices, producing a fiery, tangy chutney so distinctive that the Himachal Pradesh government has sought a Geographical Indication (GI) tag to protect it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome vendors label it a pickle, but Chamba Chukh is traditionally a cooked chilli chutney, not a raw pickle — the slow-cooking is what gives it its rich, rounded heat. Available in three traditional variants — Red Chilli, Green Chilli, and Ginger Garlic — each made in small batches using a recipe passed down through generations. No artificial colours, no preservatives, just chillies, mustard oil, and heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnjoy Chamba Chukh as a chilli chutney, dip, or marinade with parathas, dal-rice, momos, pakoras, noodles, or any everyday meal.
