Maison Marc Basil Cornichons, 310g

Maison Marc Cornichons au basilic are small French gherkins with a fresh basil twist. They have that bright vinegar snap you want with pâté or cheese, but the basil softens the edge. The crunch sets them apart from other cornichons. These are hand-picked in Burgundy and packed on the Maison Marc farm soon after harvest, which helps keep them firm and lively. Is this your first time buying from us?

• French cornichons grown in Burgundy
• Fresh basil infusion, less sharp acidity
• Hand-picked for a crisp bite
• No herbicides, insecticides or preservatives
• Made by a family producer since 1923

Put them out with charcuterie, terrines, rillettes or a cheese board. They are brilliant with raclette too, cutting through melted cheese. We also like them chopped into potato salad, tartare sauce, or a ham sandwich where you want crunch, salt, vinegar and herbs in one bite.

Meet the maker: Maison Marc

Maison Marc makes French cornichons and condiments in Chemilly-sur-Yonne, in Burgundy. Their best-known jars are the small, crisp cornichons that make a cheese board, pâté, terrine or raclette feel complete.

What makes them special is the short journey from field to jar. Maison Marc grows its own cornichons in Burgundy, then harvests and packs them in France. Their cornichons are grown without herbicides or insecticides, picked by hand, and jarred without preservatives.

These are the cornichons you want beside rich food: bright, sharp, firm and clean-tasting. They cut through charcuterie and potato salads, or lift a sandwich. The jars are simple and elegant too, with clear glass and well-designed labels. They look right at home on the table, not hidden away in the fridge door.

For anyone who loves French food, Maison Marc is a lovely discovery: real Burgundy-grown cornichons, made with patience, care and a deep respect for a classic French staple.
