For me, the pickled part is the important bit, as it indicates that they have been preserved in vinegar.
When you mention cocktail, do you mean a drink or what they call a vegetables cocktail or mix? Of course there are many varieties and sizes of gherkin, fron giant to quite small ones, that sometimes are referred to as \"cocktail\" |

Do not puree. Transfer the chopped olives to a bowl. Place the garlic, capers, and pickles in the processor and chop fine. Transfer

BTW, encurtido does mean \"pickled\", but capers and gherkins are pickled anyway, so I thought it unnecessary to specify that.
