Haywards Pickled Onions

[Tropicalevo]

Now available in Big C in the foreign foods section. Not sure if they are a regular feature or not but I cannot remember seeing them there before. I have carried out quality control and they are yummy.

Thanks Trop; One that i know you'll like is that Tesco has 100g dark (cooking) chocolate in their 'finest' section for THB 65.

It's as good as bourneville yet is half the price of anything else on offer.

There are milk chocolate bars at the same price too if anyone else is interested.

That jar is half empty. 

Could not restrain yourself?

Well, before I posted, I had to check that they were OK. And you know how it is 'one thing led to another...'

Only just saw your post, but I had already bought some there on Saturday. My favourites. Spotted them while searching for Heinz Baked Beans.

 

Now they just need to get some Haywards Pickled Red Cabbage.

And how many millions one would have to part with to get your hands on a jar might be helpful????

Does anyone know why Branston has been AWOL for over a year?

When I was there they also had some pickled red cabbage (on a lower shelf). I am just not sure if it was Haywards.

They had some Branston pickle as well but is was the 'silky smooth' stuff. Not the real one.

I think that it was 139 THB  but my memory isn't great. Do you want me to shop for you as well?

I just make my own,when the small onions start coming from China,

buy a  10 kg bag, prepare them,and put them in jars,you can get big

bottles of Malt vinegar in Makro ,works out at about 20 THB per jar.

Ditto beetroot,Piccalilli,have not tried to make Branson yet as the

swedes are so expensive.

10kg bag?! How many jars does that equate to... and how long does it take you to eat them?

Well you don't end up with 10 Kgs by the time you peel them,they can last up to

2 years .if pickled properly.i end up giving them away to friends as well.
