Pickles and Condiments

Kosher dill pickles, resplendent with garlic and dill, are a deli treat taken to America from Eastern Europe. These are not the only one of their kind in the Jewish kitchen, however. There is a wide variety of pickles and condiments, from pink pickled turnips to the golden mixed vegetables of the Sephardic kitchen. Hot peppers, herbs and other aromatics make up a grand array of condiments too, from the green chutneys of Indian Jews to the spiced chilli sauces of Israel’s Yemenite and North African Jews.
