Pickles and Spices
Savor the Aroma, Taste the Flavor, Spread the Passion.
Pickles and Spices. A couple of complementary players in Malaysian food.
Mmm…! Of all the food ingredients in the world, nothing could beat the spices. Fragrant aromas. Vibrant colors. World trade thrives on them. Food is bland without them. Then enter pickles – your tongue tingles from thinking about them. The smell of vinegar makes you drool. Without these two kinds of culinary treasures, your palate would be very dull indeed.
