### **Elephant Foot Yam Pickle of Assam**

**Elephant Foot Yam Pickle**, known as *Olkholor Achar* in Assamese, is a traditional and flavorful pickle made from **elephant foot yam** (*Amorphophallus paeoniifolius*). This root vegetable, called *Olkholu* in Assam, is widely used in Assamese cuisine and is known for its earthy taste and rich texture. The pickle is a popular way to preserve yam while enhancing its taste with spices, oil, and traditional Assamese flavors.

### **Preparation of Elephant Foot Yam Pickle**
1. **Cleaning & Peeling:** The yam is thoroughly washed and peeled to remove the rough outer skin.
2. **Cutting & Boiling:** It is cut into small pieces and partially boiled to reduce its natural itchiness.
3. **Sun-Drying:** The boiled pieces are sun-dried for a day to improve texture and absorb flavors better.
4. **Spicing:** Mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, dry red chilies, turmeric, and salt are mixed with the yam pieces.
5. **Preservation:** The yam is then soaked in mustard oil and stored in an airtight jar for fermentation.

### **Flavor and Texture**
– **Spicy, tangy, and slightly earthy**, with a hint of bitterness from the yam.
– **Crunchy and firm** texture, which softens over time as it absorbs the spices.

### **Culinary Uses**
– Served as a **side dish** with rice and dal.
– Can be paired with **roti or paratha** for a flavorful bite.
– Some people mix it with **curd or mashed potatoes** to balance its strong flavors.

### **Health Benefits**
– **Rich in fiber**, aiding digestion.
– **High in antioxidants and vitamins**, beneficial for immunity.
– **Good for gut health**, as fermented pickles contain natural probiotics.

### **Cultural Importance**
Elephant foot yam pickle is a delicacy in Assamese households, especially in rural areas where traditional pickling methods are still followed. It is a way to preserve yam for long-term use, adding variety to everyday meals.
