What are the differences between Kosher Dill pickles and normal dill pickles?
The "kosher" dill pickle can in fact refer to not only the kosher methodology behind the pickling of the cucumber, but to the Jewish New York City style of pickle makers. The kosher pickles you are munching on may in fact not be prepared under the supervision of a rabbi. In fact, fruits and vegetables alone are considered kosher. If no animal fats are added to the preservative process, a pickle is already kosher without the need of any blessing from a rabbi. Kosher related to pickles actually means that the cucumbers are pickled in a natural salt brine with generous portions of garlic and dill weed. A regular dill pickle can include a number of variations and brines with the common component of what else? Dill.
