Q: What can I serve Devon chutney or relish with?

Devon chutneys and relishes are wonderfully versatile. Enjoy them with local cheeses, cold meats and pâté, or add a spoonful to sandwiches, burgers and sausage rolls. They can also bring extra flavour to ploughman's lunches, salads and home-cooked dishes.

Q: How should I store chutney and relish once opened?

Once opened, most chutneys and relishes should be kept refrigerated and used within the time recommended by the producer.

Q: What is the difference between jam, jelly and marmalade?

Jam is made with crushed or chopped fruit, while jelly is made from strained fruit juice, giving it a clear, smooth texture. Marmalade is traditionally made with citrus fruit and includes pieces of peel, giving it its distinctive bittersweet flavour.

What can I serve Devon chutney or relish with? What is the difference between chutney and relish?

Chutney is usually a cooked, chunky preserve made with fruit or vegetables, vinegar, sugar and spices, giving it a rich, sweet-and-tangy flavour. Relish is generally fresher and lighter in texture, often made with chopped vegetables or fruit and a sharper, more savoury flavour. Both make a delicious accompaniment to cheese, cold meats and other dishes.
