Mrs Elswood Haimisha Gherkins (670g) are premium pickled cucumbers crafted using a traditional Jewish recipe passed down through generations. The term “Haimisha” is derived from the Yiddish word “Haimish,” meaning familiar and homey, reflecting the authentic and comforting taste of these gherkins. These whole cucumbers are carefully cultivated in fertile European soils, harvested and packaged once a year to maintain their freshness and full flavor. The pickling brine includes cucumbers, water, salt, acetic acid, onions, mustard seeds, flavoring, firming agent (calcium chloride), and color (riboflavin). They are suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those following a kosher diet. However, individuals with mustard allergies should avoid this product. These gherkins are ideal for adding a special touch to your dishes, offering a delightful balance of tanginess and crunch.
