What is Pahaadi Jakhya?
Jakhya is a wild mustard-like seed native to the Himalayan regions of Uttarakhand. When added to hot oil or ghee, it naturally pops and releases a nutty, earthy aroma, making it a key ingredient in traditional pahadi dishes like aloo jakhya, baadi, dals, and seasonal vegetables.
