A cracker or a small, thin piece of bread or toast spread with cheese, meat, or relish and served as an appetizer. [French, from canapÃ©, couch, from Medieval Latin canÄpÄum, mosquito net; see canopy.]
Pickle brine is a traditional Polish hangover remedy as well, say the Strybels: Fill a glass with equal parts chilled pickle brine and ice-cold club soda, and drink the mixture down at once.
If you enjoyed that particular type and flavor of sour pickle, then you'll love the pickled eggs made from it. A 32-ounce pickle jar will hold 12 medium-sized eggs, or 11 large eggs, or 10 extra large eggs. Just be sure to dump the original pickle brine, after all the eggs are eaten, as it's now completely exhausted.
