What do you put on a relish tray?!


Question:

What do you put on a relish tray?

im going to a family reunion next weekend and i was told to bring a relish tray. and i don't have a clue what's on one!


Answers:

Traditionally, a Relish try was to stimulate the appetite before the guests sat down to a meal, the key was that most things on a proper relish tray were either pickeled or brined, the salty/vinegary taste making the person hungry and preparing the palet for the main meal......Usually, here's what I put on my relish tray at the holidays:

Marinated Mushrooms
Black Olives
Green Stuffed Olives
Gerkins (small sweet or dill pickels)
Marinated Artichoke hears, halved
Celery Sticks
Carrot Sticks
Sweet Cherry Peppers

Plenty of napkins and toothpicks and you're all set......a lot of people here are confusing a crudite plate (raw veggies) for a relish tray........Enjoy and I'm sure that you'll get the relish tray right for your reunion.......
