what are cornichons
This charcuterie board features not nearly enough cornichons. Cornichons (pronounced KOR-nee-shons) are small pickled gherkins â in other words, tiny pickles. Their tart, mildly sweet flavor makes them the perfect condiment or garnish to serve with classical chartcuterie items like pÃ¢tÃ©s, terrines, and cured sausages and the like.
