PRODUCTION OF OUR PICKLES HAS ENDED FOR 2024. CHECK BACK IN SUMMER 2025!
Summer in Japan is the season of festivals, lanterns, fireworks, and refreshing foods! We think there’s nothing quite as refreshing a nice cold cucumber pickle. Our Japanese-style pickle, salty and briny like the cold, clear waters of the Maine coast, features the best of summer in a jar. We love these pickles as a palette-cleansing side dish to flavor-rich foods like burgers, sausages, pork belly, and fried clams. Tsukemono is Japanese for pickles, and kyuri means cucumber. These kyurizuke cucumber pickles are only available for a limited time, as long as we can get cucumbers from our local farm!
All of our seasonal offerings source directly from Maine and New England food producers! Our organic cucumbers come from Bahner Farm (Belmont, ME), organic kelp from Nautical Farms (Machias, ME), organic and non-GMO Japanese-style soy sauce from Moromi Shoyu (Stonington, CT), and the nigari is from our favorite sea salt producer, Slack Tide Sea Salt (York, ME).
This is a naturally fermented pickle, which means you should store it in the refrigerator. At room temperature, little bubbling or overflow of liquid is possible and totally normal. You’ll also see a whitish sediment on the bottom of the jar, which is a natural byproduct of fermentation and safe to eat.
