Rutt's Hut has been an establishment in Clifton, New Jersey since 1928, severing up deep fried hot dogs known as, "Rippers." Several publications have named Rutt's Hut dogs as the Best in the USA! Besides being deep fried it's their relish that makes them so special. Below you will find the actual recipe that was posted by Anne Rutt in a newspaper column in the 40s. Enjoy!
Rutt's Hut Relish Recipe
4 cups fine-chopped cabbage
1 cup fine-chopped carrot
1 cup fine-chopped green pepper
1 cup fine-chopped onion
1/4 cup pickling salt
1 cup water plus 2 Tbsp.
1 cup white vinegar
1/2 tsp. celery seed (TFD change, original was 1 tsp.)
1/2 tsp. celery salt (TFD addition)
1/2 tsp. mustard seed
2 cups white sugar
1 tsp. freshly-ground mustard seed note
1 1/2 tsp. ground turmeric
3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 (1-quart) sterilized canning jar with lid and ring
Instructions
Combine the cabbage, carrot, green pepper, onion and pickling salt in a large bowl, toss to combine. Allow to sit 2 hours.
Rinse the mixture thoroughly with cold water, drain and squeeze to remove excess liquid.
Combine the vegetables with the water and vinegar in a large pot. Bring the mixture to a low boil and simmer for 1 hour covered. Stir the celery seed, the mustard seed, and sugar into the vegetables.
Mix the ground mustard, turmeric and flour together in a bowl.
Carefully spoon 2 tbsp of boiling water into the mustard mixture, stir into a paste. (I used 3-4 tbsp of warm water) Add the paste back into the boiling vegetable mixture, cook and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes more.
