Pick A Pickle!

Malaysia's cuisine is a captivating blend of flavours reflecting the country's rich cultural diversity. With influences from Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous traditions, Malaysian food offers a unique and tantalising blend of spices, herbs, and ingredients.

Within this culinary landscape, the pickle industry holds a special place. Pickles, a beloved staple in Malaysian households, are celebrated for their ability to enhance dishes with bold, complex flavours, making them a cherished part of Malaysia's gastronomic heritage.

Homegrown Pick A Pickle has carved a niche with its artisanal approach to homemade pickles and pastes. This business merges traditional recipes with contemporary twists, offering a delightful array of tangy pickles and savoury pastes that capture the essence of local flavours.

Founded with a passion for preserving culinary heritage, Pick A Pickle products are a culmination of creativity, and the rich gastronomic tapestry of Malaysia. Whether one is a connoisseur of spicy tang or a seeker of unique taste experiences, Pick A Pickle takes you on a journey through the authentic taste of home-cooked goodness, one jar at a time.

Today, we speak with Co-Founders Allan and Audrie Yeo to learn more about this father-daughter family business and their journey in bringing traditional Malaysian flavours to a wider audience, as well as their vision for the future of Pick A Pickle.
