@jockamo A pickle can be anything you have 'pickled' - a kind of preservation, usually in vinegar, although sometimes people talk about pickling in brine. It can also (confusingly) refer to a specific kind of pickled thing: either a brown-coloured chutney, like this, made with malt vinegar and brown sugar, or a pickled gerkin. Both are just referred to as 'pickles' unlike pickled onions, for example, where you always say the full thing.
