- Here I eat a Branston Original Pickle on a cheese sandwich (as recommended on the jar). It's from the UK.
I did no research or taste-testing before eating this. I'm just giving my honest impression while experiencing it for the first time.
There aren't many finer pleasures in life than a cheese and branston pickle sandwich 👌🏼
Or corned beef.
The stronger the cheddar, the better!
Picalilli has entered the chat
Add a bit of mayo to it 👌
Gotta be cheddar though
Best served with a nice, strong vintage cheddar.
Never in my life have I seen sooooo much Branston in one sandwich! Dang!!!
USA really is the home of the brave, lmao 🤣
Good work. But need to try this with a mature English cheddar for the sharpness.
And butter!
@@moosic2i and nicer bread!
Fresh bread in the UK is bread that was baked that day not yesterday. In France proper bread goes stale by the afternoon and I am not joking.
I love Branston's, but prefer the fine cut.
Branston also pairs well with cold cuts of meat too.
Why don't Americans put butter or margarine on bread in sandwiches? They always eat it dry which mystifies me. Branston is also available in small chunk pickle which is more saucy and now outsells the original larger chunk variety.
In my experience, us Americans usually opt for mayo and yellow mustard on our sandwiches. People who eat dry sandwiches just don't know how to enjoy life, but I'd say its still more respectable than the folks who put ketchup on a cold cuts sandwich.
I don't know of any Americans who eat a sandwich dry. I've tried butter before; I wasn't a fan but I think it depends on the type of sandwich. Butter is a must for a grilled cheese sandwich. Otherwise I prefer other condiments such as spicy mustard, mayonnaise and my favorite, horseradish sauce.
Yeah it's weird. I ordered a cheese sandwich from a deli in New York once and it was just bread with about 5 Kraft singles in it. It was fucking dreadful.
As a frequent Branston scoffing Brit, I watched your video, glad you liked it. The real reason I'm commenting, is I saw your T shirt and ordered one the same. 👍
Sweet!
It’s all so good with cold beef in a sandwich or on a plate with a jacket (baked) potatoes
Its nice with salad too
I tend to favour a grated cheese sandwich with Branston.
Literally every time you bit into the sandwich I salivated with envy. Your bread looked so good. Come to the UK and get the good cheese for the Branston. I do put vinegar based condiments on everything and the list is very long as to how to incorporate vinegar into your life but Branston is a really good start.
Bring back Pan Yan!😁
Sweet Picallilli, sliced tomato, ham and a dash of mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Perfection in a sandwich.
My husband was in the supermarket and a Canadian couple asked him where the Branston was, they saw some in his trolley, they told him back home they have a Brit friend who asked them to bring a jar back with them,but they were also addicted to it,I just hope customs in Canada let them in.😂I eat it with Bacon in a sandwich yum 😋 ,you can also get a smooth Branston which is nice ,love your bread ☺
You should try "HP Sauce" with bacon, it's a game changer! (as well as a thin layer of Colman's English mustard if you like mustard with your bacon)
@@Aeronaut1975now you got me salivating, yum yum nice.
Yeah u need to have it with uk strong mature cheddar
Let’s go Branston
Was there no butter on that bread? Seems to be an American thing but can't imagine a sandwich without butter
Me either but they tend to always have sauce.
well done. Probably more than I would have had in a sandwich. It's the sort of thing you can have with a salad too. I like it.
Probably less than i would have in a sandwich
It also comes in a finer chunk size.
Good taste test - personally I'd take about 1/3rd of that amount for a typical sandwich but if you like a strong vinegar-pickle taste ...
I've got to have a thin layer on a lot of butter.
Spot the man who has become INSTANTLY addicted to Branston....
I enjoyed watching this.. thanks for making one of my favourite sandwiches. If you can get some aged Red Leicester in America to grate up, it's much better than the rubbery processed stuff; but mature Cheddar is an excellent choice as well. A good brown bread does well with this and should be spread with softened butter. You don't need too much pickle. I like it with a builder's tea. PG Tips and Yorkshire are nice and don't require a very particular set of skills to brew up.
Try it with a sausage and cheddar cheese sandwich and some pickled gerkins thrown in the mix and a bit of chilli sauce
Works even better with a nice bit of cheddar.
I love it on yellow sharp ...preferrably, English Sharp
You can eat it in a salad and cold meat or cheese. you can buy a sandwich-type that is chopped finer.
Just like hp sauce, it's also nice on grilled cheese on toast.
It is a relish. It's a chutney too. You can use it on burgers.
Ham, cheese and Branston on buttered bread. Devine sandwich.
Butter on bread. Raw onion with cheese. Half the amount of pickle.
Done
Well done. You made me so wana try this
Glad you enjoyed it.
Did you butter the bread?
There's lots of different Branston pickles, there's a mayonnaise one, Piccalilli, Ploughman's lunch , smooth small chunks etc, you can have it with cheese, pork pies, in fact anything savoury, or just eat it straight from the jar, enjoy
I like to put some on a plate of cheese chunks as a dip
It looks so delicious
Southwestern Yank here. I like Branston Pickle on just about every savory sandwich I make, including hotdogs, in lieu of the usual green relish. I also like it on some burritos. Blasphemy, I know, but, so what?
Branston on cheese on toast is amazing
I am slowly coming round to it in a hot sandwich it's really good in a cheese and chutney toastie.
Try Branston pickle small chuks it's much better in cheese sandwich
Duuuude, it's MAGIC on venison or ostrich burgers!
Now put that in a sandwich press with ham its amazing all melted together
Get some butter on that bread lad! Branston is your gateway drug into the world of chutney. Try black garlic or red onion chutney next! There's thousands of them.
That’s a lot of branston on that sandwich wow!
There’s a mustard pickle you should try too, called Picalilli
A little goes a long way, if you like it try the red label, sandwich version.
I'll never understand the 'no-butter' thing with sandwiches!
It seems to be a predominantly American idea, but then again, I don't know how crap their butter is?!?!
In the UK our butter is fabulous, so we slap it on every sandwich, roll, baguette, scone, crumpet, muffin............ etc etc etc!!! 😋😋😋
A pickle is the result of something that’s been pickled as in the process, it’s not necessarily a gherkin you can pickle pretty much anything
Just had the Branston pickle last night w/ a UK friend, delicious!! His American wife hated it 😂
Please try the Branston pickle jar x
Dude your bread looks amazing! Do you have the recipe by chance? I've been wanting to try my hand at baking bread for sometime now!
Sure -- it's a riff I worked out over COVID that's kinda somewhere between white bread and french bread.
I make it in a Zojirushi bread machine on "white bread" mode. I'm sure it'll work similarly in another bread machine.
Ingredients, in the order to add them to the machine:
320g Water (room temp),
62g Honey,
26g Olive oil,
560g Bread Flour (King Arthur Special Patent flour is ideal),
8g Dry milk,
10g Salt (I prefer granulated pink salt),
36g Unsalted butter (room temp),
6g rapid rise yeast
Why no butter on the sandwich?
Because I'm American and have no idea what I'm doing, here.
Bit too much on there. It's best used sparingly so it doesn't overpower the cheese.
I prefer the smooth version. Lovely with a cheese and ham sandwich. But needs butter or mayo. That must be a dry sarny.
It is good stuff 😊
No butter on the bread -- crazy.
Where's the butter??
I don't know the normal procedure, I'm a Yankee!
It's what we refer to as Churney.
Why no butter on your bread?
I have a suggestion for you of something to try: a ham and pease pudding sandwich. It's only found in the north of England, but you might struggle to get the pease pudding sent to America as it's a refrigerated item. It's really tasty though
Pease pudding is really easy to make.
Pease Pudding can go off quite quick or dry out so buy it tinned if not eating it straight away.
@@redf7209 Pease pudding hot. Pease pudding cold.
Pease pudding in the pot. Nine days old.
I've made my own for years and it lasts ages.
@@tmac160 I've seen it dry out or go moldy quick so it needs looking after.
You can get small chunks too if you find that one too chunky.
I would call it more of a chutney!!😁🇬🇧🇬🇧
It’s a pickle chutneys are sweet
I eat mine with corned beef pie.
You can get “small chunk” Branston
Yes but it's pointless it's not like the chunks are too big in the first place unless you are the character from the childrens story the princess and the pea.
Is this really so alien in America? I think the terms pickle and chutney are used pretty interchangeably in England even if there are specific distinctions.
Try it with a strong crumbly British cheddar
Good
Yummy
Why you no butter on that sandwich???? Wtf 😮
Read the ingredients theres loads of stuff in there.
Highly
You need a nice cuppa with that
I don't know that I have the experience/skills to make a proper cuppa.
that shit’s the bomb.
Next sandwich you make rem3mber 5o spread butter on the bread.
It is a chutney!!!
Cold meat and mashed potato....must be with Branston
did it perfectly but to much branston nice with all sorts of meat branston is more popular in the north of england yorkshire where i am lancashire northumberland cumbria never without it mate.
Not just right! Suppose to put butter on one side or both.
From a fellow english gang gang you used too much pickle but still fairplay!!!
Next try piccalilli, a mustard pickle spread
No, no mustard in piccalilli.
Piccalilli, or mustard pickle, is a British interpretation of South Asian pickles, a relish of chopped and pickled vegetables and spices. Regional recipes vary considerably. Wikipedia
@@moosic2i What? Every brand of Picallili I've eaten has mustard in them.
@@dinastanford7779 yes it's a leftover from the British Raj.
Shouldn’t toast the bread and a cup of tea to wash it down
Bit of ham wouldn't of went a miss
Add some sardines to that sandwich.
No butter on that sandwich - ugh.
For anyone wondering what it tastes like, it’s tastes like wostershire sauce.
No, no it doesn't at all.
It does a bit. If you were an alien. He's not saying it's exactly like the scrumptious sauce. I'd kneck both of them - meaning that I would eat the jar of Branston pickle washed down with a bottle of Lea & Perrins.
Jeff is definitely a bottom rather than top
the small chunk version is better
What's a boinger?
I am.
@@boinger is it your nick name?
@@TalentlessCooking It is! I've been "Boinger" for a looonnng time.
@@boinger Makes more sense now, it was a recommended search term when I made my Branston pickle video.
@@TalentlessCooking LOL. That's hilarious. Inadvertent SEO FTW.
Why don't Americans butter sandwiches
Like I'd think you were most likely to butter stuff
You lathered way too much pickle on there... It's a condiment, not an ingredient.
What are you doing take two slices of bread butter the bread put the cheese on the bread pop it under the grill to melt the cheese a little then put a teaspoon of branston on the melted cheese not two huge dollops of branston on dry toast that is offensive to British people
i need to know are you jeff or are you boinger you CANNOT be both
You need proper craft British cheese, not that processed stuff. Strong Farmhouse cheddar or Lancashire
That is too much pickle for one sandwich.
It's not gelatinous at all.
Boy, you need some bread instead of that weird sponge cake looking stuff you are using.
No butter? Brits butter their bread.
Bread to thick cheese to thick to much branston and butter your bread first for gods sake. lol
You should let them know to improve the instructions they put on the jar. It included literally none of that information.
You're right but please don't misspell 'too' it's a basic 3 letter word. How can you go wrong lol?
All down to personal preference pal. Me, I put a healthy chunk of cheese on and a good thick layer of Branston as well.
Your bread is too thick you need butter or margarine and half the Branson also great with any cold cuts.
What about trying Piccalilly.omg you haven't lived mate
Shame that you have used highly processed gelatinous plastic cheese instead of a traditionally made English Cheddar
That cheese looks processed and awful
try a piccalilli and cheese sandwich
