Tuna and Branston Pickle Melt

People talking
Yes, I know that it sounds vile, but try it--it really is quite yummy. Everybody that I have made try it agrees with me! For all of you non-Brits out there..Branston Pickle is a combination of various vegetables in very small chunks pickled in a sweet brown sauce,usually served with salads, cold meats or in sandwiches. It's typically English, but is definitely available here in Australia, so may well be in the U.S. If you ever see it, I recommend you try it, it's good stuff!!

I couldn't get Branston pickles, so I used a combination of sweet relish and a mild giardiniera. We really loved the way the pickled veggies tasted with the tuna. I think this would also be a good cold sandwich, minus the cheese. The serving size is perfect. Thanks for posting!Reply

This made a quick and delicious snack last night when I got home from work. I used a combo of pickle relish and some pickled veges I had. Made for PRMR.1Reply

The pickle chutney really adds a nice change to regular tuna melt. I used chopped sweet gherkins pickles mixed with chow chow (on hand) in lieu of the Branston, served it on rye bread, and enjoyed it for a quick dinner.1Reply
