assistant: Going to step in here, since Helen Peagram and I are the ones who started the
Branston Pickle search.  Chow-chow is vastly different from Branston Pickle.
Since Ian doesn't know chow-chow and you aren't familiar with BP, Ruth, I
thought I would let you know.  The flavours are, to me, both pleasant but
I would use each in an entirely different way.  Chow-chow is more coarsely
chopped, and green.  Branston Pickle is chopped finely, but with perceptible
pieces, and almost black in colour,
I haven't gotten to try the BP recipe yet, as it's not harvest time here.
Hope to in the near future! :)
Take care,

Hi Bruno,
Here is the recipe you requested.
The Thousand Islands, I believe, are in upper New York State near the
Canadian border.
There are literally a 1000 little islands. It is a famous vacation spot. I
assume that is where the name comes from but I don't know for sure.  This
recipe calls for finely chopping the ingredients. But the best 1000  Island
dressing I ever had was in a restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, Florida  and they
left the ingredients chunky. Hope you enjoy it!

assistant: Hello, sorry to interfere but i read something off storing tomatoes.
I'm a cold store manager specialised in keeping apples and pears in
perfect conditions. We can do this with the help off air thigt cooling
chambers. We reduce the oxygen level (deadly for human) and increase the
carbon dioxyde levels so that the product slows down its breathing to a
level off almost non activity. We don't use this on tomatoes because there
is no need for us, we can deliver tomatoes round the year but maybe for you
it's interesting.
Just a question, is there in youre country a problem with round the year
delivery???
BTW. my favourit tomatoe dish is.
Bake some onions on high fire, put sliced tomatoes in it, a little salt and
curry powder, then 2 or 3 eggs and ready.
ready in about 15 minutes.
