Herb Ham Picnic Sandwich

Rated 0 stars by users

Fresh, vibrant and full of classic British flavour, this sandwich is made for picnic season. DukesHill's Herb Infused Ham brings delicate garden herb notes that pair beautifully with crisp Little Gem lettuce, peppery watercress and tangy Pickled Shallots. Finished with a generous spread of Proper Piccalilli, it's light, satisfying and perfect for everything from garden lunches to summer days out.

Directions

  1. Step 1 Butter each slice of Sherston White Loaf generously with Bungay Butter.

  1. Step 2 Spread Proper Piccalilli over two of the buttered slices.

  1. Step 3 Layer over the Herb Infused Ham, folding the slices naturally to create plenty of texture.

  1. Step 4 Top with the Little Gem lettuce, followed by the fresh watercress and thinly sliced Pickled Shallots.

  1. Step 5 Finish with the remaining slices of buttered bread, press together gently and slice in half.

  1. Step 6 Wrap in greaseproof paper for the perfect picnic sandwich, or enjoy immediately while the bread is wonderfully fresh.

Chef’s Tip

  1. Step 8 For the ultimate picnic, make the sandwiches around 30 minutes before serving. This gives the flavours time to come together while the Sherston White Loaf stays beautifully soft. Serve with hand-cooked crisps and a chilled glass of lemon water (or sparkling wine if you prefer!) for the perfect British summer lunch.
