Pickled Gherkins
Pickled gherkins have been a beloved snack and condiment for centuries, with origins in Eastern European and American cuisine. Their crisp texture and tangy, slightly sweet brine make them a perfect accompaniment to sandwiches, burgers, and charcuterie boards. Pickling gherkins is a simple yet rewarding process, allowing you to customize flavors with herbs and spices. A pro tip: For an extra crunchy bite, soak the gherkins in ice water for 30 minutes before pickling!
