I was watching the British tv show, “As Time Goes By“, a couple days ago when one of the characters, Jean, mentioned a cheese & pickle sandwich. Immediately I had a craving! I’d tried one of these when I went to visit friends in the English countryside in 2003…DELISH!

“pickle”……cheese…..pickle & cheese!

Branston Pickle … is made from a variety of diced vegetables, including rutabaga, onions, cauliflower and gherkins pickled in a thick brown sauce made from vinegar, tomato, apple and dates with spices such as mustard, coriander, garlic, cinnamon, pepper, cloves, nutmeg and cayenne pepper. It’s sweet and spicy with a chutney-like consistency.

It is commonly served as part of a ploughman’s lunch, a common menu item in British pubs. It is also frequently combined with cheddar cheese in sandwiches, and most sandwich shops in the UK offer "cheese and pickle" as an option.
