Colman's Bramley Apple Sauce - 136g

In a proper British roast, every meat has its partner. Mint sauce goes with lamb, horseradish goes with beef, and apple sauce goes with pork. Nobody wrote the rule down. Everybody follows it anyway, and Colman's is the name most people picture on the jar.

Living in Canada does not stop the Sunday roast, it just makes you hunt for the details. You can do the pork, the potatoes and the gravy perfectly, and it still feels a bit off without the jar you grew up with on the table.

A proper little 155g jar, small enough to live in the cupboard until the next roast comes round. Beyond pork, it earns its keep in a sausage sandwich, beside a wedge of strong cheese, or stirred into gravy for a sweeter edge. Check the lid once it is open and follow what the jar says.

Colman's also makes mint sauce, horseradish and, of course, the famous English mustard. Put a few of them on the table together and the whole roast speaks with a Norwich accent.
