DND's All Seeds Swap #9 (2022) - Phytocraft - Loads of tiny 1-2" spiny cukes for cornichon pickles. Collected 2022.

This is the classic cornichon cuke beloved in France to accompany pâtés and cold meats or for inclusion in Sauce Gribiche. Ideally pick at no more than 2 inches and process in small batches for enjoyment throughout the year. Seven plants are adequate to supply a family, but they will need support. In Switzerland cornichons are an indispensable accompaniment to raclette.

Days To Maturity: 56-60 days.
