What is a relish?
A relish is a mixture of vegetables and spices that are preserved with sugar and vinegar and usually used as a condiment or a topping for a main dish.
Examples of relish include chutney and cucumber relish, which is popular in the US.
You can use virtually any vegetable to create relish, which means that different relishes can have a range of flavours.
What does the sweetcorn relish taste like?
This relish is full of sweetness, thanks to the sweetcorn.
The onion, chilli and mustard additions give the relish a lovely tangy kick so that it’s full of flavour.
The sweetcorn gives the relish a crunchy texture, which works well with bread-based dishes like burgers and hotdogs or would make a great salsa if used in a fajita recipe.
