Open the jar and drain some of the brine before serving. These pickles are excellent straight from the jar as a side dish or snack. They can be chopped and mixed into creamy salads like potato or tuna salad for added texture and a zesty flavor. Slice them thinly to layer onto sandwiches and burgers, providing a sweet, sour, and spicy contrast to richer ingredients. They also pair wonderfully with charcuterie and cheese selections, cutting through the richness of cured meats and aged cheeses.

Unlike traditional bread and butter pickles, this version incorporates horseradish. This addition introduces a noticeable warmth and a sharper, more pungent flavor that complements the sweetness of the brine. Regular bread and butter pickles are primarily sweet and sour, while this variation offers a more complex taste experience with a spicy finish.
