How is it possible to achieve a shelf life without refrigeration and without any preservatives?
Happikery products achieve a shelf life due to the packaging technology. The products are manufactured in a state-of-the-art certified facility, with best practices. Once manufactured they are packaged using Retort Technology, Which is basically, sealing the contents in the special food grade 4 layer aluminium pouches and then subjecting the pouches to high temperature and pressure in a boiler called Retort, Something like a pressure cooker, Similar to how milk is packed in Tetrapacks. This technology was invented and used many years ago by the Indian Army for packing food products for our defence staff at remote locations, at high altitudes and over a long period of time.
How do we use these products?There are three methods to use Happikery:
1.Using Pan: Empty the contents in a pan and adjust the consistency with water. Heat and stir for a minute and they are ready-to-use. Make your choice of dish with the base gravy.
2. Using Microwave: You can also empty the contents in a microwavable container. Add water, stir and heat to achieve desired temperature.
