The Dill Pickle Mustard by Trader Joe's is described as herbaceous and savory, thanks to the addition of natural pickle flavoring, dill weed and real pieces of diced-up pickles. The summer condiment is the perfect companion for everything from burgers and hot dogs to sandwiches, plus it has the potential to simplify the number of condiments layered on, since it is quite relish-like in flavor.
Like plain mustard, the versatile dill pickle condiment has the potential to be mixed into marinades and summer recipes for a kick of salty, briny flavor.
The popular flavor of dill pickle is being worked into a variety of unusual food and beverage products to satisfy consumer' desire for sour and garlicky tastes.
