Chutney

I am not a big chutney eater myself, though I do like a little to wake up a chicken or cheese sandwich, so I have allowed the chutneys I make to be guided by customer feed back.

As a general rule (probably because I don’t like vinegar very much) my chutneys are pretty fruity, Generally 70% fruit with about 15% vinegar and 15% sugar.(This is lower in both Vinegar and Sugar than most conventional recipes). Because the fruit taste predominates over the vinegar I produce many of the chutneys with a fairly light spice mix. Though I do produce other chutneys with hotter spice mix to suit the palate of some of my customers.

Where as with Jam and marmalade I generally work with clearly measured recipes, with most of the Chutneys I tend to work in the time honored way of using the ingredients to hand and balancing the preserve by tasting and testing, So if you find a jar you like, enjoy it! you may never find exactly the same taste again!
