Here’s a Salsa to relish and a Relish that will make you want to Salsa.
Always on the lookout for ways to use familiar ingredients in different methods, whether it’s a cooking technique, in combination with other main ingredients, or with herbs and spices, I sat upright the other day when I saw on different shows, an eggplant relish and coconut salsa. Quickly rewinding the LIVE television (thanks technology), I jotted down notes from the brief descriptions given by the Chefs. I searched online for actual recipes but couldn’t find any as both of these dishes were borne of the Chefs’ creativity.
Relish and salsa are both condiments. The distinguishing feature of a relish is that the main ingredient is cooked then pickled, on the other hand, a salsa can be made with raw or cooked ingredients.
