Cheese and onion roll

[a_chap]

Ideally I’d like a crusty roll or baguette.
The cheese has to be grated.
The onion should be more finely cut

I'll fight you in the car park of your choice.

Made a couple on Thursday using Sao Jorge cheese which is hard cheese from the Azores which is tangy like cheddar, white onion and a papo seco ( bread roll) which had a bit of a crust. Fantastic.

Looby that's a bit gutting about discontinued small chunk Branston's. I also have lump issues and was a fan of the more accessible pickle.

These days I tend to go for chilli jam in my cheese roll, like the middle class ponce I've apparently become

You can still buy small chunk I think, just not smooth.

I like chilli jam too but prefer that on a cracker to a roll.

I like:


Cheese and pickled onion

Cheese and pickled onion mmmm. Way superior to cheese and onion IMO.

Hot lime pickle also goes well in a cheese roll.

Crusty or soft roll? Gotta be crusty IMO. Butter and pickle or at least butter and red onion preferred but not a deal breaker.

Cheese & onion sandwiches are great, but I know how to cut cheese properly unlike Elpenor

Yes. Cut too many oblongs so they don't all fit comfortably in the roll, so you just have to eat some before wrapping it up. Oh well nevermind. ✔

Na matter, cheese and onion rolls are food of the fucking gods; up there with pickled egg in a bag of ready salted.

Ah, didn't realise you were an egg in bag aficionado.

Never tomato though, in any kind of sandwich, ruins it.

I love a cheese and pickle roll but I don’t like the lumps. Unfortunately Branston seem to have discontinued smooth pickle.

Usually I go for a red onion marmalade.

Obviously with ready salted crisps or chunky chips if at the pub.

Until recently I would have 100% agreed with you but Tesco sea salt and chardonnay vinegar crisps have me in an absolute chokehold at the moment.

I bought smooth branston over Christmas.
First sandwich delicious, but too sweet for me by the end of the jar

Raw chopped onions on top of a curry is one of my favs.
