DRUKCAN Flaxseed Pickle (Alas ko Chhop) is built around alas — flaxseeds — roasted and combined with mustard oil, chilies, and Nepali spices to create a thick, textured condiment that is nuttier and more substantial than most achars. Flaxseed pickle occupies a special place in Nepali home cooking as both a condiment and a nutrition-dense addition to everyday meals, valued for the omega-rich seeds as much as for its strong, roasted flavor. The chhop-style preparation gives it a paste-like consistency that clings beautifully to rice and chiura. This is the kind of traditional, uncompromising achar that home cooks in Nepal have made for years but that you simply cannot find in mainstream stores — DRUKCAN brings it to your table, ready to eat.
