These beautiful chewy goodies are your best bet to savour the flavour of mango all year. We have got three varieties of Aamsotto from different mangoes: Gopalbhog, Himsagar and Amrapali from last year’s produce, perfect as is or to be added to any dish.
about
Aamsotto utilises the same wisdom of stretching a seasonal produce to last year round. Traditionally made with sugar to increase the shelf-life, our aamsotto, however, does not contain any added sugar to retain the actual flavour of the fruit, at the same time making it usable for any kind of dishes. The process of preparing it involves picking mature mangoes, boiling, straining the pulp and sun-drying on thala on layers, a highly skilled and labour intensive process.
