Kisiliście kiedyś ogórki?

Hi Guys!

This week I have another news for you from the Polski Daily website! If you’re interested in learning more about Polish language and culture, you can sign up for weekly newsletters here: polskidaily.eu!

Have you ever pickled cucumbers? Poles LOVE pickles! And not only pickles, we also love gherkins, marinated and – probably most of all – małosolne cucumbers!

Małosolne you can really only get in spring time, when the cucumbers are young and fresh. This season is really short, probably that’s why we all love them so much! We have to wait for so many months for them and then it’s only a couple of weeks when we can enjoy them!

Małosolne pickles are only pickled a little bit. It’s like the first stage of pickling, when the vegetable is still crispy and crunchy, but already starts to have this distinctive pickle taste. This time of year – May and June, when it’s so warm outside, these kind of cucumbers are usually ready after just 3-4 days from the moment you put them in the jar!

Cheers!

Dominika
