The Phenomenal Finom Pickles

Finom Finom
5.0 (1 reviews)

Mr. Simcha Fried, a Belzer chassid, opened Finom on Shamgar Street in Jerusalem just over a year ago. Besides all the typical food items available on the shelves, Finom boasts a huge array of Shabbos food takeout. The pickles they sell are truly mouthwatering. They are lovingly prepared and set out on the elder Mrs. Frieds’ porch to pickle in the sun and are pretty unique in a country that doesn’t really offer American-tasting pickles. These pickles taste like dill pickles but are a bit spicier, which makes them even better!

Notes:
If you like half-sour pickles, you can already taste it as soon as the cucumbers begin to change in color.
