I love the relishes and chutneys that are commonly used in sandwiches here – we love Ballymaloe relish. We had never heard of putting relish or chutney in a sandwich before we moved here (or coleslaw) – but I have to admit that it’s a very good sandwich addition. This relish is not tomato-based like Ballymaloe, but it’s still perfect for sandwiches, burgers, and the roast turkey I’m making for our belated Canadian Thanksgiving dinner tonight.
