Kruegermann Mustard Pickles
Senfgurken is German for Mustard Pickles, a variety of pickles coming originally from
northern Germany. Kruegermann is the only pickling company in the US, and one of few
in the world to follow the traditional way of making mustard pickles. A special cucumber
variety is used. The cucumbers are allowed to grow two feet in length and four inches in
diameter. Each cucumber is hand-peeled, cut in half, and deseeded. The cucumbers are
packed in a mild sweet and sour brine along with Kruegermann's own blend of spices, onion,
and herbs. This specialty is very labor intensive and can only be made in limited quantities.
The taste of mustard pickles is very different from all other pickles. Mustard pickles are
quite spicy, yet not burning-hot, and have a distinct flavor of
their own. They make an excellent topping for your barbecue, and will turn regular
scrambled eggs into a delicay you will crave for! Present a mustard-pickle-topped sandwich
to your family and friends, and you will always get the same reaction:
Whoa, what is this? Can I have more, please!
