Possible Secret Recipe
This recipe was given to me by a friend of mine who got a box of old recipes at a garage sale last summer. The dates of these recipes are from the 1920's to the 1950's. What makes this clipping interesting is the name on the recipe and the Clifton address. Clifton is the home of my favorite Hot Dog in all the world, the Rutt's Hut Ripper, with It's "Secret" relish. Could it be that the recipe was leaked by someone in the Rutt family? I am not sure, but it seems like it might be so.
I am going to make it and see how it rates to the real thing. I am surprised about this recipe since I always thought the relish was pickles mustard and coped carrots. Another friend of mine even suggested the secret relish was pickled watermelon rind from a Pennsylvania Dutch supplier. I will let you know how it turns out and post some photos.
