This cult fave from Sheffield is not a relish at all but a vinegar based sauce that can be found in local fish and chips shops. The Yorkshire dialect is not slang and goes back to Old English. Sheffield is England’s musical ground zero and has produced countless bands of international stature. It’s all in the sauce, apparently.
Much easier to say than patum peperium. Anchovy based secret recipe goes back to England’s John Osborn in 1828 but has been reversed engineered by several kitchen labcoats. All European fishy condiments can be traced to the Roman’s beloved garum. One can imagine Hillary taking a tin up Everest or Churchill spreading it on toast. Refined.
No relation to Earl, the Major was stationed in India and went a little native. A big seller in the States, Major Grey’s is to chutney what Pace is to salsa, tolerable at best. The difference between a relish and a chutney is negligible. There are hundreds of chutneys both wet and dry. “All things chickeney and mutt’ny taste better far when served with chutney”. Indeed.
Not quite the neon green that a Chicago Dog requires but close enough. The difference between a chutney and a relish is purely geographical and/or cultural. Jalapenos have replaced pickles in many households. Vlasic recently held a “be the stork” contest that encouraged obnoxious eating habits. At one time, the Groucho inspired bird promoted birth control.
