Sweet and Savory Preserves

Preserving fruit and vegetables at their peak — as jam, chutney, sambol or pickle — is as old a tradition in Sri Lanka as growing them, and this category covers both the sweet and savoury sides of that: fruit jams alongside spiced chutneys, sambols and pickles built to sit alongside curry rather than on toast, plus a handful of ready-to-heat curries and traditional fried sides. Small-batch and slower to make than most of the catalogue, so expect a shorter shelf life once opened than the dried goods elsewhere on the site — refrigerate after opening and use within a few weeks.
