Commercially, they form a multi-million pound industry and ever-imaginative new examples appear on the supermarket shelves with great regularity. Moreover, pickles, chutneys and relishes are often a favourite with shoppers at farmer's markets and country fairs. Notwithstanding this, there is absolutely no reason why, with very little effort, and often the most basic of locally sourced ingredients, you should not make your own.
