I’d love to start by telling you about my long-ago Polish-Jewish immigrant great-grandparents who struggled to come to America, arrived at Ellis Island, and began their new life with a pickle cart and a dream…But it would be entirely in inaccurate!
My grandmother, Giovanna, grew up on a farm in Canarsie/Brooklyn and was a tremendous cook. Giovanna created a solid recipe for pickled green tomatoes. Italians, although famous for great cooking, are as equally famous for not writing them down (Giovanna included). ”A little bit of this and a little bit of that…” is hard to replicate for 500 jars of pickles a week.
Truth be told, it took my husband, Brian, and I about ten years of tweaking and experimentation to replicate pickles found in abundance during my youth in New York. This style of pickle is hard to find in Michigan, so out of necessity and nostalgia, the Traverse City Pickle Company was born. My grandsons, Francis and William, however, will now have a great story about their grandparents who struggled to come to Michigan, arrived in Traverse City, and opened a "pickle cart" with a dream…
