In summary

Initially in the spelling ranstig, borrowed from Middle French rance + -ig, from Latin rancidus (“rancid”). The current spelling, attested since the late eighteenth century, may have been influenced from German ranzig, attested since the early eighteenth century, from Dutch ranstig, though this is disputed.
