It consists of a selection of cold ingredients, including cheese, cold meats (such as ham or roast beef), pickles, bread, and butter. The cheese is usually a strong and tangy cheddar, and it is accompanied by pickles, such as Branston pickle or pickled onions. The Ploughman's lunch is a simple yet satisfying meal that is perfect for a light lunch or as part of a picnic.
