The North East Store

The North East Store An Online Store for original produce from NorthEast India- unique foods, traditional weaves & handicraft And miss it when they are away.

The North East Store was born of a simple fact: People love where they are from. We are a group of people from the North East of India who, through the course of our lives, have lived outside of the North East and missed Home and all its comforts. We found many others in the same predicament. For too long we made do with bringing back foodstuffs and other unique items back from our too few and far between holidays. Unfortunately, as much as we could carry, it was never enough. And when airlines rationed our check in luggage weight to 15kgs that was the last straw! So we thought... Hey, if you can't go Home, how about getting Home to you? Our store is an attempt to make you feel better by doing exactly that, bringing Home to you. The North East Store carries a selection of food items unique to the North East as well as Handloom and Handicrafts of the states of the region. We strive to showcase as many hard to come by products for people not native to the region to discover, learn about and enjoy. We at The North East Store source our products from local farmers & producers and NGOs, Government groups & Self Help Groups supporting local farmers, weavers and producers. All products are locally sourced, helping not only users find these products outside of the North East but also to expand the local nature of these products and get them out to a wider market not bound by physical markets.

How would you describe fermented food esp to someone who has never tasted it? Drop your comments below 👇

Tangy, sour, pungent, “umami” are some of the words used to describe our northeastern fermented foods, but what exactly does fermented bambooshoot taste like? Or fermented fish? Or fermented soyabeans? So difficult to describe to those who have never tried them. All we know is fermented = flavour bomb!! 🤤

That pork curry from home, but as a pickle! DM for link to order 🔗



Made with quality pork, dried bambooshoot, dried red chili, ginger, garlic, Naga king chili, sichuan pepper, salt, mustard oil and vinegar 👌 🤤

Another classic pork curry combo, Pork + Roselle leaves in pickled form!



Roselle Leaves aka jajew, tengamora, mesta tenga, pairs really well with pork, as its tangy flavour cuts through the fatty pork!

We do love our spice, don’t we? And by spice were mean chillies 🌶️ super spicy king chillies go into any chutney, bird’s eye chillies, the small powder houses of spice and Dalle Khursani the cherry chilli queen with it’s fiery-yet-sweet flavour profile!

We in the northeast ❤️ our chillies 🌶️ and if not freshly, we always have the dried versions, pickles, chilli pastes, chilli oils or even flashes & powders!

Mustard oil is infused with dried red chillies, garlic, onion, lemongrass and palm sugar for a complex, aromatic heat that’s perfect to top off noodles, fried rice, pasta with delicious flavours! It’s definitely one form of ‘therapy’ 🤣

Monday’s can be crazy but your lunch can still be yummy with just these 3-ingredients - leftover rice, smoked pork, cut into cubes and a chopped tomato. Simply add the smoked pork in a wok/pan, when enough oils ooze out, add the chopped tomatoes and fry till there’s a gravy, add the rice and Done- you have a tomato-y smoked pork fried rice 🍚 😋

(Of course you can always add onion, garlic, chillies- but on certain days, who has the time 🤷‍♀️)
