With cheese sandwich you need a strong punch cheese like a mature Cheddar - other types of cheese don't seem to work. Although Warmed Brie cheese with red current jelly (not jelly as in what you use in a truffle lol) it's more like a conserve or UK Jam we get it a lot around Christmas here in the UK, Cranberry sauce works just as well
My personal favorite plus-up there is to use Indian mixed pickle instead of the Branston. Hadn't thought of turning that into a grilled cheese, oddly enough, but now I will definitely have to try it!
I have been curious about Branston Pickle for quite some time but have never pulled the trigger while in the international aisle, but maybe I should "give it a go".
It's good. I just ate a Tillamook Reserve white cheddar cheese and Branston pickle sandwich on soft white bread with the Branston side buttered. Simple. Perfect.
Alright now plus it up with good crisped up kebab meat! Was making an Americanized grilled cheese-branston sandwich when I remembered i had some delicious locally-made artisan gyro meat (kebab for the lads and ladies across the pond) so I crisped it up and it went real good, albeit maybe a little salty 😂
A sandwich that I grew up eating and loved is: a canned trout (or boneless salmon if you don't have access to it) with dill, mayo, sour cream, and some vinegar. Put some sauerkraut, sliced tomato, and sliced cucumber. Top it off with a little honey and some hot sauce (Frank's is good). Hope you try it, and maybe you'll enjoy it!
I saw at least one other person recommending grating the cheese, which is the more traditional route. This is a texture thing but also gets the cheese to mouth temperature better, which gives the cheese more flavor than when it's chilled. And assuming you eat it directly after grating, it now has much more surface area to be oxygenated and thus provide more flavor, like decanting or swirling wine. Sidenote: You might know already, but pre-shredded (non-organic) cheese has unlabeled natamycin.
Yeah, I saw that. Didn't realize that shredded was more traditional. But I like that more than a block of cheese tbh. And yep, new that about the coating they put on pre-shredded cheese. I try to always grate my own.
@@SandwichesofHistory It's not always shredded. I think some of it had to do with austerity too. Shredded cheese looks like more for the same weight. Here's an example of what they were doing with sandwiches: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_sandwich#Sandwich_recipe
Grated is NOT traditional. When we grew up in the 60's UK it was bread cut from a loaf with cheese cut from a block and Branston (Remember there was only 1 Branston then) spread over.. Grated is for snowflakes.

Pickled what? I couldn’t understand what kind of pickle you were applying. It wasn’t a dill pickle or a sweet pickle. It didn’t look like any kind of pickle I’d ever seen before and I couldn’t understand what you were calling it.
The channel concept is lovely and it's great that you have a format you can pump out such regular videos with.
Thank you so much, Steven!
Cheese and pickle sandwich, grilled, with tomato and caramelized ham sounds like the best version of this.
Thank goodness. An international incident successfully avoided.

Ingenious channel. Pick a topic, get in-depth, run with it. New sub and loving it. Give it a go
Thanks!
I love the concept of this sandwich. It's simple, packs a little bite, and a decent meal potentially

You pump out a great video every day and I struggle with getting one out once a week. Great work, awesome sandwich
Also this reminds me of when I’m in a rush and do the old cheese game pickle rollup
You can do it! Once you start it's easier to keep going at a regular pace.
This man is living the dream - I am in awe!
GIve this man a food network show now!!!
Thank you!
I have been curious about Branston Pickle for quite some time but have never pulled the trigger while in the international aisle, but maybe I should "give it a go".
As was recommended to me, if it's regular Branston, chop it up a little, use a mature cfeddar (sharp), and go sparingly at first.
It's good.

This makes me want to try the Branston pickle. I'd love to see the Shooter's sandwich sometime.
Oh yeah, I need to get on that one. Thanks for the reminder
Glad you enjoyed it!
i dunno why this channel aint bigger cause i watch this shit on the daily lol
Thank you!
Congratulations on nearly 10k subs, Sandwiches of History!

Caramelized ham is so good!
Looks good.

I am liking the 4 way sandwich!

Sounds pretty tasty. What's the story behind how it came about? Because that sounds like there was some thought put into it.
You like your sandwiches 🥪 very classy RGnz
I like hard cheddar with dill pickles. Equal amou ts each.

youre the GOAT Barry!
Thank you so much!
“which is…interesting” 😂
Would love to see some famous sandwiches from movies and TV shows.
Well, I've done the Larry David and the Moistmaker (twice) but more to get to for sure.
Maybe you could do the pimento cheese sandwich from better call saul some time
picked up this spread today after this video, i thought it was very good on buttered toast
Go lightly and give a quick chop if you bought the regular kind.
@@SandwichesofHistory i went heavy with the big chop i thought it was great haha right up my alley on a bagel
So I guess the small chunk is more useable for a sandwich spread?
🙌🏻 melty cheese for the win!
What will he do next ?!?!

The only way to fail the grilled cheese treatment is to start with a horrifying sandwich. Isn’t grilled always an improvement?
Yes, yes it is.
People who prefer small chunk are not proper 'Branston People' lightweights.
Why a sandwich of history? I have this at least twice a week (without the meat)
Every food has a history 🙄
Pickled what? I couldn’t understand what kind of pickle you were applying. It wasn’t a dill pickle or a sweet pickle. It didn’t look like any kind of pickle I’d ever seen before and I couldn’t understand what you were calling it.
It is a sweet pickle! I’m from the UK and we normally have it for lunch with ham, bread and cheese on a platter or in a sandwich like here.
Frankly, I prefer immature cheese.
😂
I like to cut it myself.
Sorry I don't do Dill....
make a chese sandwich
