Has Hendersons Relish changed?

Henderson's Relish has been our family staple for many a year. Love It!

 

I learned to read from that orange label and could only wonder at the exotic mysteries of Cayenne Pepper, Tamarinds, Garlic, Cloves etc. Giving extra flavor to something called casseroles. ?? We had stews.

 

It may have changed over the years, what hasn't? But if change has enabled survival of the product together with compliance of food and labeling standards then so be it.

Henderson's Relish if foul muck. I think you have to be brought up with it to appreciate it and it says it all that it's never found a market outside of the Sheffield region, whilst the Worcestershire stuff has a worldwide market.

 

It just tastes like vinegary caramel to me, which is what it is.

 

After reading this I bought a bottle of Lea and Perrins this weekend and have to agree that it's much tastier than Hendersons.

Bought a bottle in Northallerton " Lewis and Coopers " off the shelf .

A store of renown and so you don't look at the price . It is a shop of esteem , which says all . " They only sell quality ".
