The vinegar found in Bubbies Spicy Kosher Dills and Spicy Sauerkraut is used in the hot peppers that give the products their Chutzpah! Even though the vinegar is used in the pickling process of the peppers and not in our fermentation process, we are still required to list the ingredient.
Calcium chloride is commonly used to keep fermented and pickled products crisp in texture over the course of their shelf life. We here at Bubbies only use calcium chloride derived from natural sources that are not chemically processed. Bubbie wouldn’t have it any other way!
Bubbies products are made with Kosher salt from a now-dried, inland seabed. Our salt is not iodized and is minimally processed, offering the same sort of flavor and consistency as sea salt.
Bubbie protects her secret recipe with a sharp tongue and a wooden spoon! We can tell you that this ingredient is comprised entirely of whole, ground, and crushed spices without any additives. Three of these spices are whole black pepper, whole dill seeds, and crushed red chilies, the last of which is a nightshade. If you have a specific allergy concern, please write to us.
The “Use By”, “EXP”, or “Sell By” date can be found stamped in ink on the outside of our jars.
Heating up Bubbies products will certainly change the flavor and may caramelize any of the naturally occurring sugars. Bubbie suggests you eat it cold and straight out of the jar, though follow your preference!
Bubbie would say your jar’s gone meshuganeh, or crazy in Yiddish! What she means is your jar has started a second fermentation process. This is normal with fermented foods and can still be safe to eat. The product may be a bit softer and more sour than normal. Please reach out to us if you have any further questions or concerns.
This is normal. Bubbies doesn’t use pop-up lids. Our lids are machine tightened and not vacuum sealed. As Bubbie says, “Vacuums are for carpet!”
Mmmm…late night Bubbie snack ☺. We’ve all made that mistake…except Bubbie of course! Our Kosher Dill Pickles, Dill Relish, Pickled Herring Fillets, and Sauerkraut should always be refrigerated to maintain the highest quality possible. Product should only be left out of the refrigerator for short periods of time.
In the case of Bubbies Bread & Butter Chip varieties and Sweet Relish, they can be stored in your pantry or refrigerator before being opened. Once opened, store safely in your refrigerator.
Here's a quick guide:
· Always Refrigerate - Kosher Dill Pickles, Sauerkraut, Dill Relish, Horseradish & Pickled Herring Fillets
· Refrigerate After Opening - Bread & Butter Chips & Sweet Relish
Ultimately, we cannot guarantee the quality of improperly stored foods, so you’ll need to use your best judgement when consuming.
Our products have a 2-year shelf life from time of packing. Once opened and if kept refrigerated, we recommend consuming the product within 3-4 months (our horseradish products within 2 months) for the best quality and taste! For best results, keep all brined products submerged.
Animals typically don’t need the extra sodium that fermented and pickled foods contain. We do not recommend feeding your pets our products. If your furry friend is craving Bubbies, it's best you contact your veterinarian.
While Bubbie is a great cook, she's no doctor! For dietary concerns regarding fermented foods while pregnant, always contact your provider. And congrats!

Our fermentation process harnesses the bacteria cultures that are naturally present on our cucumbers and cabbage to transform these amazing veggies into delicious, fermented pickles, relish, and sauerkraut! The particular bacterium in our fermentation is lactobacillus, though the strains of this bacterium vary from batch to batch. This “lacto-fermentation” is the magic process behind our products as well as kimchi, kombuchas, yogurts and much, much more!
It’s the cloudy brine that makes it Bubbies! The cloudiness is a byproduct of the natural fermentation process. Some batches are naturally cloudier than others, but all are safe to eat and taste delicious. Bubbie says, “Shake Until Cloudy!” To learn more about Bubbies cloudy brine, click here!
To quote Bubbie, “Drinking the brine is divine!” Be like Bubbie and use the brine instead of vinegar in all your favorite recipes! Try it in your salad dressings, marinades, and cocktails! "Bub-tini," anyone!? While utilizing the brine is delicious, it's important to remember that the brine is what keeps the pickles and sauerkraut preserved so it's imperative that you keep the products submerged in the brine until you've enjoyed it all.
Bubbies products are fermented using naturally present and live bacterial cultures, though we don’t test for the number of live cultures in each jar or serving.
