House of Garden Kosher Dill Pickles 670g (23.6oz)

House of Garden Kosher Dill Pickles is a 670g jar of whole cucumbers brined with dill and garlic from House of Garden — a specialty pickle producer — in the classic kosher dill pickle format: the traditional Jewish-American and Eastern European-style dill pickle in which cucumbers are brined in a dill, garlic, and salt solution for the crisp, garlic-forward, dill-fragrant pickle that is the standard deli-style pickle of North American and Eastern European Jewish food culture. House of Garden works in the kosher and traditional Eastern European pickle category, and the kosher dill pickle represents one of the most culturally specific and well-defined pickle formats in the Jewish-American and Ashkenazi food tradition — the pickle that appears on the pastrami sandwich plate, alongside the corned beef at the deli counter, and that has been a fixture of New York Jewish deli culture since the Eastern European Jewish immigration to the Lower East Side. Kosher dill pickles differ from standard supermarket pickles in flavour: the prominent garlic, fresh dill, and direct brine produce a more pungent, savoury, less sweet pickle than sugar-added American sweet pickles, and the crunch of the kosher-dill cucumber is one of its defining characteristics — the snap that distinguishes the authentic kosher dill from softer, pasteurised alternatives. Eat straight from the jar alongside a sandwich or deli-style plate, serve with pastrami or smoked meat as the classic kosher deli accompaniment, chop into egg or potato salad, or keep in the pantry as the House of Garden kosher dill for the household that follows the Jewish-American or Eastern European deli-pickle tradition.
