Ploughwoman's Pickle
A delicious pickle or chutney to add to any and all cheese boards, grazing tables or of course, the ploughwoman's lunch! Enjoy.
Truly British in nature, this amazing pickle or chutney is going to be really great on anything you can think up. Of course, the Ploughwoman's Lunch is the obvious first go to. But whatever you like chutney or pickles with, is going to go really well with this pickle.
It is a feminist chutney! We love it with cold meats, hot meats for that matter, grazing platters, cheese boards, and then there are things like Lazy Sourdough Loaf, Crusty Rye Bread, with slatherings of butter. Or Tuna Melts or other cheese toasties. Use it liberally and often. There is a lot of it.
Enjoy!
