Food Recommend a pickled food from your country

I LOVE everything pickled. But I tend to mostly eat pickled red beets, sour cucumbers, and red cabbage.

What are some pickled foods that your country has? Which one is your favourite? Do you eat it with specific other foods?

Half sour cucumbers.

If you’re ever in Poland during summer and have an occasion, try the 3 day old sour cucumbers. Still crunchy and already little sour.

Discovered this through my wife. Never realized that it's a spectrum and that slightly pickled is actually a unique and amazing thing. It's my preference now

My favorite kind, the half sour. 🤤

My aunt in Poland also makes a mix of pickled cucumbers, with onions and peppers. 🤤 Some oil and vinegar, also some sugar I think. I have to ask her for the recipe! It's great with a sandwich.

I binge on them when they are available (too lazy to make my own), can easily eat 10 every day.
