Bostongurka (Swedish meaning "Boston cucumber") is a type of relish with pickled gherkins,[1] red bell pepper and onion with spices such as mustard seeds.
It is so popular in Sweden that it is considered by some to be a generic term.
Bostongurka was invented by the Swedish company Felix based on a recipe from Hungary.
It was originally invented as a way to use up the end pieces left over when making pickled gherkins.
