Perello Gherkins
Perello Gherkins 190g are small baby sized gherkins, also known as pepinillos, marinated in vinegar with mustard seeds, silverskin onions, and black peppercorns. The result is a clean, sharp pickle with a firm crunch and layered flavour that develops as you eat. Their size and texture make them easy to serve straight from the jar, while the balanced acidity works especially well alongside richer foods. These gherkins are a natural fit for cheese boards, charcuterie, and pâtés, where they bring contrast and freshness without overpowering the main ingredients.

What are pepinillos and how do they differ from standard gherkins?
Pepinillos are smaller gherkins that are harvested early, which gives them a firmer texture and a more pronounced crunch compared to larger pickled cucumbers.
Why do these gherkins pair well with cheese and charcuterie?
Their sharp acidity and spice cut through fat and richness, helping cleanse the palate between bites of cheese, cured meats, and pâtés.
Are Perello gherkins suitable for classic French sauces?
Yes, they are commonly used in sauces such as tartare and gribiche, where their size and texture make them easy to chop finely without losing definition.
