🍲 Explore Our Nepali Fermented & Dry Foods

These Nepali delicacies are known for their bold taste, rich nutrients, and deep cultural significance:

  • Gundruk (Fermented Leafy Greens) – Nepal’s national fermented dish, made from mustard or radish greens; tangy, earthy, and full of probiotics.

  • Kinema (Fermented Soybeans) – Traditional Limbu and Rai delicacy; rich in protein and natural umami flavor.

  • Sukuti (Dried Meat) – Spiced and sun-dried meat, loved for its smoky, chewy texture. (Available seasonally.)

  • Tama (Fermented Bamboo Shoots) – Tangy and aromatic; a must for Tama Bodi Aloo Tarkari.

  • Dry Vegetables & Beans – Naturally sun-dried golfre, maseura, peas, and more for quick, hearty Nepali meals.

  • Lapsi Powder (Hog Plum) – A tangy dried fruit used in achar and chatpate.


🌿 Why Fermented & Dry Foods Matter in Nepali Cooking

Fermentation and sun-drying are ancient Nepali preservation techniques — a blend of tradition, flavor, and nutrition.
They create ingredients that last longer and bring a deep, earthy umami to curries, soups, and pickles.

Rich in probiotics, fiber, and plant-based protein, these foods are both delicious and nourishing — reflecting Nepal’s sustainable Himalayan lifestyle.
