Questions about Cucumber sweet pickles
What are cucumber sweet pickles?
They are cucumber pieces preserved in a sweetened vinegar brine, often flavoured with spices such as mustard seed or cloves. You’ll find them sliced into chips, cut into spears or left whole.
How can you use cucumber sweet pickles in a sandwich or burger?
Drain the slices well so they don’t make the bread soggy, then layer them with cheese, cold meat or a veggie burger. Chopped pieces also add a sweet, tangy bite to egg mayonnaise or tuna sandwiches.
What dishes go well with cucumber sweet pickles?
Chop them into potato salad, coleslaw or devilled-egg filling, or serve them alongside cheese and cold cuts. A spoonful of finely chopped pickles can brighten tartare sauce and other creamy dressings.
How should you store cucumber sweet pickles after opening?
Keep the jar refrigerated and make sure the remaining pickles are covered by brine. Use a clean utensil to take them out, and follow the storage instructions on the jar.
Can you use cucumber sweet pickles instead of sweet pickle relish?
Yes: finely chop and drain the pickles, then use them in the same amount as relish in dressings, sandwiches or potato salad. Relish is already chopped and can be wetter, so add it gradually.
How much sodium do cucumber sweet pickles contain?
They contain 457 mg of sodium per 100 g. The brine contributes much of it, so draining the pickles can reduce the salty liquid you eat, though it won’t remove all the sodium from the cucumber.
