gherkins
Tiny brined cucumbers
Gherkins are small cucumbers pickled in vinegar or brine, typically served whole as a condiment or snack.
The word usually refers to a specific variety of cucumber harvested young for pickling, though in British usage it can mean any small pickled cucumber: a jar of gherkins, gherkins on a burger.
