Directions
Apple-Apricot Chutney, I am on a fresh ginger kick, plus it’s the time of year (it’s autumn as I write this) to use those fresh apples! I really appreciate that this recipe makes such a small amount that you can keep it in the fridge, without the bother of processing it Makes a great hostess gift, too , as I can never leave well enough alone and as I wanted to be able to can this goodness, I made some additions and substitutions to this recipe and I modified the instructions a bit I would note that this recipe was just awesome without my changes but for die-hard chutney fans, like me, it needed some oomph I made 12 cups as follows: added 6 cups of chopped red onion; I chopped the apricots smaller than halves; I zapped the garlic cloves and ginger in my blender with about a cup of the vinegar; used dark brown sugar instead of white and I had to use half and half golden raisins and sultanas as I ran out of the golden ones right in the middle of putting this together I bet that using some jerk seasoning instead of the red pepper flakes could make for some pretty tasty stuff thank you OP for getting my mind running away with an idea, as I can never leave well enough alone and as I wanted to be able to can this goodness, I made some additions and substitutions to this recipe and I modified the instructions a bit I would note that this recipe was just awesome without my changes but for die-hard chutney fans, like me, it needed some oomph I made 12 cups as follows: added 6 cups of chopped red onion; I chopped the apricots smaller than halves; I zapped the garlic cloves and ginger in my blender with about a cup of the vinegar; used dark brown sugar instead of white and I had to use half and half golden raisins and sultanas as I ran out of the golden ones right in the middle of putting this together I bet that using some jerk seasoning instead of the red pepper flakes could make for some pretty tasty stuff thank you OP for getting my mind running away with an idea
