Cucumber
Varieties
Gherkins, also called cornichons, or baby pickles, are small cucumbers, typically those 1 inch (2.5 cm) to 5 inches (13 cm) in length, often with bumpy skin, which are typically used for pickling. The word gherkin comes from early modern Dutch, gurken or augurken for "small pickled cucumber". The term is also used in the name West Indian gherkin for Cucumis anguria, a closely related species.
