dill pickles
Tangy green spears
Dill pickles are cucumbers preserved in brine flavored with dill—the herb that gives them their distinctive taste.
The term distinguishes them from sweet pickles or bread-and-butter pickles.
In American usage, pickle without qualification usually means dill pickle: I'll have a dill pickle with my sandwich.
