Talk:Relish

Picalilli

Are relish and piccalilli the same thing? This should be clarified on both pages.96.238.45.90 (talk) 22:27, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

I wonder, is the fact that "Gentleman's Relish" was invented by John Osborn the reason that singer Joan Osborne chose to name her debut album "Relish"? The similar names might be an incredible coincidence, but now I have to wonder. If there's any way to verify this hunch, it would be worth noting in the article. - Ugliness Man 15:29, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

The article says that pickles are relish, but defines relish as a sauce made from pickled or cooked fruits and vegetable. Pickles are thus NOT relish, as they are not a sauce but whole or sliced cucumbers.

"Pickle" in some contexts can mean any pickled condiment, not necessarily pickled cukes. 65.41.47.160 14:50, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Original Research

Much of this article appears to be original research.

For example, the entire paragraph:

In the United States, the most common commercially available relishes are made from pickled cucumbers and are known in the food trade as pickle relishes. Two variants of this are hamburger relish (pickle relish in a ketchup base or sauce) and hotdog relish (pickle relish in a mustard base or sauce). Other readily available commercial relishes in the United States include corn (maize) relish. Heinz, Vlasic, and Claussen are well known in the United States as producers of pickles and relishes. One of the best known pickle manufacturers in the UK is Branston.

This paragraph contains numerous unsourced/unverified "facts".

It's also true. Do you honestly think it's possible to "verify" what relish is like in the US? I mean, go to the store. (apparently by 75.73.70.113 (talk))

Yes, I honestly think it is possible to verify what relish is like in the United States and provide a reliable source reference. Failure to do so makes the claim unsourced/unverified (i.e. "original research"). It does not matter whether or not it is "true" in my opinion or yours. See: WP:ORIGINAL.

Pico de Gallo

I have heard this described as a relish. I think it has more in common with most relish than most salsa, wot wot? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.70.113 (talk) 00:24, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Gentleman's Relish

I am new here, but something caught my eye.

A notable relish is the Gentleman's Relish, which was invented in 1828 by Ben Elvin and contains spiced anchovy.

This is in the article, but if you follow the link provided the article for gentleman's relish....

Gentleman's Relish is a type of anchovy paste. It is also known as Patum Peperium. It was created in 1828 by an Englishman called John Osborn.[1]

Chutney

Just a note - while cooked chutneys originate from India, it was the British who developed the process: prior to that, Indian chutneys consisted of raw fruits/vegetables. This may be worth differentiating in the commentary. Signed DonaNobisPacem — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.92.196.168 (talk) 21:57, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Tartar sauce?

Isn't that a mayonnaise based sauce, not a relish? Otherwise, should we adde Thousand Island dressing and sauce Remoulade as well? -- megA (talk) 03:47, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
