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.[2]
Despite its name, Bostongurka has nothing to do with the city of Boston. 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.[3] Today, the name Bostongurka is a registered trademarkofOrkla Group.
