“Eat with a Southern Accent” is the motto of Doux South, who like their sweet pickles as much as their tea. Crafted by Atlanta farm-to-table chef Nick Melvin — who was schooled on the south’s proud pickling tradition while growing up in New Orleans — these bread and butter-style cucumber pickle slices are pleasantly sweet without being overwhelmingly saccharine, which allow complimentary undertones of celery seed and garlic to shine. In other words, these preservative-free, hand-packed pickles will tickle your fancy and satisfy your sweet tooth, and we’re not just whistlin’ Dixie.
Tip of the Tongue
These soulful pickles are ideal for all-day eating, be it a snack, meal or nightcap. Layer into an egg-citing breakfast sandwich, chop and stir into remoulade as a dip for deep-fried foods, or slip a slice onto the rim of your dirty martini. How sweet it is.
