Mama Lil’s Bread And Butter Pickles

With their sweet, sour and spicy flavor combination, these tasty bread & butter pickles definitely stand out from the rest. Whether used on a sandwich in a salad, or eaten straight out of the jar, we found that they have a great sweet and sour balance and a good hit of heat. The pickled onions and red pepper slices in the brine are an added bonus, as they not only give a nod of flavor, they are also delicious on their own. Mama Lil’s sources the ingredients from local farms, including Willamette Valley cucumbers, spicy red “peppas” and Walla Walla sweet onions pickled in a sweet apple cider vinegar brine. Packed in a glass jar with a colorful folk art label, these pickles make a great gift to bring to a picnic or barbecue.

Place of Origin: Portland, Oregon[/accordions-break] What’s in a name? Why are these tangy, briny sliced cucumbers called Bread & Butter Pickles?[/banner_heading]One theory says the name came from sliced pickled cucumbers layered between two slices of buttered bread, a Depression-era staple, due to the low cost and high availability of the ingredients. Others believe it came about when an Illinois family (who later filed for a trademark for their bread & butter pickles) worked out an agreement with a local grocer, who gave groceries—including bread and butter—in exchange for the family’s pickles. Not so clear, but either way, soft buttered bread and sharp, crunchy pickles make a perfect pair.[/banner-text-break]We enjoy eating these pickles on their own but they also add a whole new dimension to hot dogs, hamburgers or sausage on a roll. They’re also a great flavor and texture addition to potato salad or deviled eggs. [/how-to-use-break] ​Mama Lil’s products can be kept refrigerated for six months to a year after after opening.
