A gherkin is a small variety of a cucumber that's been pickled. It's a little cucumber that's been pickled in a brine, vinegar, or other solution and left to ferment for a period of time. Cucumbers and gherkins are both types of vegetables, but they have some differences. Cucumbers are larger, usually around 6-9 inches long, and have smooth skin. They're often eaten raw in salads or sandwiches. Gherkins, on the other hand, are smaller, usually around 1-3 inches long, and have bumpy or prickly skin. Gherkins contain flavonoids and tannins that make them ideal antioxidants. With anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer benefits, gherkins are a valuable source of conventional antioxidant nutrients including Vitamin C, beta-carotene, and manganese.
