cheese savoury

Options
There's a deli in town that sells lovely cheese savoury
mix and a coleslaw mix for sandwiches. When I've attempted to make them myself, it does'nt taste the same. Does anyone have a recipe? Maybe its the amounts I don't get right, grateful for any help ta.

    I love the cheese savoury that is served in 'torpedos' in our local well-known cake shop. Again, like Jinny, I can't manage to come up with the same tasty mixture. What I manage to make is fine - well it's got cheese in it so it would be fine - but it's never the same as the one from the shop.

    Wonder if we're talking about the same shop. Jinny, is your shop advertised on the telly (for it's pasties) by a certain handsome young 'man in a van'?

    my friend has suggested mixing salad cream and mayo might try that

    Cheers for that Bongedone!:beer:

    Think I may have been going wrong by using Mayonnaise - cos it didn't taste quite right. I know the one that I'm thinking of does have grated carrot in it - but not coleslaw.
    I'll give it a go anyway:T .

    That recipe is the same one that Greggs use as far as I know. They are a North East company.

    Thank you will try that , think it is the salad cream rather than mayo that gives it the taste.

  • If using mayo instead of salad cream, add a tsp of Dijon mustard.

    Here goes but I won't give the quantities ;), best to make it to your own taste anyway.

    Cheese
    Carrot
    Onion
    Mayo

    Or an ex recipe from Cumbria

    tops and tails of toms and Q's
    cheese
    onion
    chopped egg
    salad cream

    Again make to your own taste.
