The Gefilteria was founded by a trio of New York foodies, one of whom is a Fort Greene resident. The Gefilteria “reimagines Old World Jewish foods, adapting Ashkenazi classics to the values and tastes of a new generation.” They are currently the in-house picklers at Peck’s, 455A Myrtle Ave. With pickling barrels in the basement you get the freshest picks each time you purchase their sours and half-sours. Also, keep a look out for Pickling Workshops led by team member Jeffery where you’ll learn “the value of pickling and fermentation in Ashkenazi food culture, and how to make your own pickles at home.”
Visit The Gefilteria to learn more about their products – gourmet gefilte fish, horseradishes, beet kvass and a new line of pickled products – and purchase on-line or find a store near you.
