Branston Pickle image

Branston Pickle is a UK favourite that is served in pubs as part of a Ploughman's Lunch. Although this tangy vegetable pickle has lots of ingredients, it is worth the effort. Tastes great with cheeses.

This pickle is amazing! I've never had anything like it before. It's sweet, sour, and savory all at the same time. I can't stop eating it!
