With a name which appropriately translates to ‘Berry Hill’, Beerenberg stirs up a variety of jams, chutneys, sauces and dressings from a family farm that served up its first batch of strawberry jam back in 1971. Regardless of whether you’re after something for to put on your morning toast, pair with your lunch or spice things up at dinner, Beerenberg seemingly has it all.
The difference is all in the texture and consistency! A sauce is generally a smoother, more liquid condiment with a pureed base, whereas a relish is usually chunkier and made up of preserved vegetables. Both sauces and relishes are added to dishes to make them more flavoursome.
