Branston Relish Hot Chilli & Jalapeno

I always said I didn't like Relish. I prefer good old Ketchup on my Burgers, and Relish always seemed lumpy and Veggie. I tried this at an indoor BBQ the other week, and oh my god, this is Bl**dy nippy! I was curious and thought I would try a little bit just to see what it was like. This comes in a plastic squeezy bottle. Not really sure of the price, but by the looks of it and the brand name I would guess this cost around the £1.20 mark, give or take a bit. Found up the Sauces aisle. You can keep these in the fridge when open, but I normally keep my Sauces in the cupboard. The bottle is alright looking. It stands on it's end, so I guess you would get most ...  Read the complete review

I'm a bit of a spicy food fanatic at times and a friend of mine and I are always trying to out do each other in how hot we can make our chillies and curries. So far he has the hottest chilli title where as I have produced the hottest curry so far (cayenne pepper is wonderful stuff) but at times I just want something with a bit of a kick which doesn't leave me sweating like mad. Some so called chilli sauces are so feek and weable (sorry one of my dad's sayings - it sort of stuck with me) that they really aren't worth bothering. Still I was wondering round my local Sainsburys and after seeing the rather daft advert for these I decided to give this one a go. At ...  Read the complete review

This was on offer in Sainsburys a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't resist picking up a bottle. I love hot sauces and considering the ingredients were hot chilli and jalapeno, I knew it would be right up my street. The relish comes in a 380g bottle and cost me 98p although it's usually around £1.28. It's made by the makers of Branston pickle and there are a few other flavours in the range. On opening the lid you can instantly smell the chilli and to be honest it did make my eyes water a little. The sauce is red in colour because the sauce is tomato based. I'm no wimp when it comes to hot sauces and I like to be really hot. A lot of the ...  Read the complete review

Something to relish If you aren't familiar with relish it is defined as a cooked or pickled chopped vegetable or fruit food item which is typically used as a condiment. The vegetables are often finely chopped and is not smooth like ketchup might be. Being half American I can't really eat burgers or hot dogs without relish and so am always looking for a great accompaniment to go with my barbecue food. I have tried the Crosse and Blackwell Branston Relish before and liked it so decided to give it another try but this time I was going to try another flavour. I originally tried the Gherkin flavour which in my opinion is quite neutral and safe and so ...  Read the complete review

Whilst at a BBQ a couple of months back (remember that lovely hot spell we had in early June? What's going on with the weather now?!?) that I was first introduced to Branstons chilli and jalapeno relish. Being a bit of a spicy food fanatic, and much to my friend's amusement, I squirted a whole load of this thick, red relish on and proceeded to tuck in and then......wallop. My cheeks turned red, my eyes started watering and my mouth was on fire, but I loved it and just had to get some. ****Ingredients**** As you'd expect this relish is packed full of different ingredients, most of which are quite powerful on their own. Tomatoes make up 20% of this ...  Read the complete review
