He chopped 90 grams of seedless dates and added them into a pot over high heat along with 25 grams of molasses, 25 grams of brown sugar and 25 grams of dark soy.
Jock added 500 grams of malt vinegar, 15 grams of tomato paste, 15 grams of Vegemite, a quarter teaspoon of pepper and all spice, one teaspoon of mustard and five grams of salt into the pot as well.
He brought the mixture to the boil and let it simmer while he stirred the ingredients until the liquid reduced in size by half.
Next, Jock blended the mixture together with a stick blender until smooth, then passed it through a strainer before returning it to the pot.
The Scottish chef brought the mixture back to the boil and added the diced vegetables into it, then poured seven grams of cornstarch and water into the pot.
He let the vegetables boil until al dente, for two to three minutes, and removed it from the heat to allow the pickle to cool before storing it inside a jar.
Jock mixed together then 17 ingredients and assembled the Branston, cheese and ham on buttered sourdough and enjoys, he even gave the lunch a chef’s kiss (pictured)
