About Arjay Gourmet Foods, Ltd.

Behind the Rohini's label are the expertise, tradition and entrepreneurial spirit of Arjay Gourmet Foods, Ltd. founder, Rohini, who launched the Rohini's line of condiments in 1998 as a way of combining four of her most avid interests: gardening, cooking, international cuisines and promoting the culture of her homeland, India.

By profession a retired senior research scientist with more than 17 years in food technology and product development at a Fortune 500 corporation, Rohini is by tradition a member of the culinary culture known the world over for its delightful assortments of aromatic, flavorful and piquant spices. A native of Jamshedpur (India's largest privately owned steel-producing city) and graduate of the University of Bombay in chemistry, she moved to the United States in 1964 as a graduate student, earning a master's degree in food science from Michigan State University and a doctorate in dairy technology from The Ohio State University.

For many years, Rohini's versions of tomato- and aubergine (eggplant)-based chutneys -- traditional recipes perfected by her knowledge of food science and her skill in food preservation -- were popular favorites at home and office parties, neighborhood gatherings and community events. These versatile condiments, and five additional flavors, are now available commercially for your enjoyment.
