Since 1706. A spiced vegetable relish. There is nothing else like it! One of the best-known commercial pickles in England and Europe is Branston Pickle Relish, a spiced vegetable mixture that beautifully complements artisan breads, cold meats, hors d'oeuvres and cheeses. The name comes from a village in Staffordshire. It was here that Crosse & Blackwell Branston Pickle Relish was first made.
