Cade Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Gherkins are barry. Olives are barry. Other excellent veggie tapas includes sun dried tomatoes, stuffed peppers, artichoke hearts, grilled aubergine, pickled onions (proper traditional style in malt vinegar and tons of spices), pickled walnuts and kimchi/sauerkraut. Fine on their own, but far, far better with a fine selection of cheeses, cold meat cuts, plenty good bread and a few cold drinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greedy Jambo Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 Stuffed vine leaves as well by the way, the cold ones with rice. And there's a hot version with mince. I can't remember the name of either of them, but it's the thought that counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greedy Jambo Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 The only thing some supermarkets do that is close to being good, is Gold Star brown sauce, which the chippies water down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an ex that would sit and eat gherkins from a jar when we were watching telly of an evening. It took very long tooth brushing sessions from her before there was a chance of any kissing during the nightly exertions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
