Does anyone else find . . .
that a dash of Branston pickle really lifts a rather mundane cheese sandwich . . . or is it just me?

Especially if the sandwich consists of wholemeal bread :wub: |

Re: Does anyone else find . . .
Branston is a particularly pleasant condiment, complimenting a whole plethora of light snacks, im particularly partial to a light smearing of said pickle UNDER grated cheese on toast, toasted until golden brown, mmm, delicious with a glass of red of an evening.Do you enjoy any other pickles as a sandwich enhancement or are you strictly a branston fan? :eek:

Cheese and branston used to be one of my favourite sarnies when I was a kid. These days, I'm partial to a bit of Mrs Ball's. Or Mango chutney. Cheese and mango chutney is scrummy. |

Not always an acceptable substitute for the classic Branston fan. My eldest would complain vociferously if I forgot to put Branston on his butties - thank God we can get it here, even if it is an extortionate price for a tiny jar. |
Re: Does anyone else find . . .
Definitely tarts up a good cheese sarnie. Have just discovered some real tasting cheese which would go well with it too.

Re: Does anyone else find . . .
I can only eat a cheese and branson sarnie if the cheese is grated. Otherwise it just isn't the same............

Re: Does anyone else find . . .
I love the pickle taste but hate the lumps- if only there was a lump free version....
there again I love the smell of pickled onions, but hate the taste. Hubby buys jars for me to sniff and him to eat! |
Re: Does anyone else find . . .
So does one put the branston on the bread first or on top of the cheese:confused:

Wooster sauce is particularly lovely with cheese on toast :wub:
Piccalilli, however, is just plain wrong, although surprisingly Mustard Pickle, which shares many of the same ingredients, is fine. How odd is that?! A bit like fancying only one half of a sexy pair of twins . . |
