About

This delightful old country recipe makes good use of green tomatoes and is a sweet and tangy pickle similar to piccalilli but much sweeter. Taken from a collection of old “Farmers Weekly” reader’s recipes, it is very popular in the North East of England and is wonderful with cheese, cold cuts and in sandwiches.
