EIGHT08 EATS: National Pickle Day

National Pickle Day recognizes the tart, sometimes sweet, and even spicy pickle. Each year on November 14th, pickle lovers pop open pecks of their preferred preserved pickles. The term pickle comes from the Dutch word pekel, meaning brine. In the United States, the word pickle typically refers to a pickled cucumber. However, just about any fruit or vegetable can be pickled

In Hawaii Nei, locally produced pickled cucumbers aren’t prevelant but pickled mangoes, pickled garlic, pickled onions, pickled daikon, and pickled ogo are readily available

Happy Eats,
