Mt. Olive Chipotle Bread & Butter Pickle Chips
What it is
These are sliced dill pickles that have been brined in a sweet and tangy mixture. The addition of chipotle peppers introduces a smoky heat that complements the classic sweet and sour profile. They offer a distinct flavor that is both familiar and exciting, making them a versatile condiment and snack.
How people cook with it
These pickle chips are great for adding a burst of flavor to sandwiches and burgers. They can also be enjoyed straight from the jar as a zesty snack.
- On sandwiches
- In salads
- As a burger topping
- Straight from the jar
Open the jar and drain off some of the brine if you prefer a less intense flavor. Place the chips directly onto sandwiches, burgers, or wraps. They can also be chopped and mixed into tuna salad, potato salad, or deviled eggs for an added layer of taste. For a quick snack, simply enjoy them as they are. The sweet and smoky notes pair well with rich or savory dishes.
