National Pickle Day History
Pickling has been a tradition for countless years. A movable supply of provisions for travelers as well as a dependable source of food for people enduring bleak winters was made possible by the technique, which ensured a level of preservation that would have been unthinkable under pre-modern conditions. Although a wide variety of vegetables can be pickled, the cucumber emerges as the main food associated with pickling and the word “pickle” in general. Pickled cucumbers are thought to have first been consumed by civilizations in the Tigris river basin, and historical luminaries like Cleopatra and Julius Caesar have praised the food’s health advantages.
Pickles wouldn’t arrive in North America until 1492, despite their popularity in the Old World. By the year, you could have surmised that Christopher Columbus was the one who brought them into existence. On his missions, pickles were added to the sailors’ food as a scurvy-prevention measure. By the middle of the 17th century, pickled cucumbers were being sold all throughout the region after being purchased from Dutch settlers who were cultivating in the New York area. This would create the ideal conditions for the region to serve as the launchpad for the kosher dill pickle.
Many Eastern European Jews immigrated to the United States throughout the late 1800s and early 1900s and lived in the region surrounding New York City. They carried with them the special techniques for making kosher dill pickles, and these early varieties of pickles would grow into the now-famous and widely-available snack seen in supermarkets across the country.
