At the charming little shop Pickle de Winkel in the Arnhem neighborhood of Klarendal, everything revolves around sustainability and creativity. Here, surplus vegetables and fruits are transformed daily into new, flavorful products. From customers who have more than they can use to the organic supermarket Odin — many of these leftovers find a second life here. Through fermentation, a variety of surprising products are created, such as kimchi, kombucha, spicy sauce, and tempeh.
The cozy interior invites you to linger for a while. Take a seat at one of the tables and enjoy the homemade noodle soup, which changes weekly. Think of a rich laksa with seafood or a vegetarian version with tofu. Everything is carefully prepared, and almost nothing goes to waste—low waste here is more than a principle; it’s a way of life.
