Bergies Colonel Greys Chutney

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I was at a friend's house for dinner tonight and was served Major Grey's Chutney with a curry. I was reminded that I have always thought Major Grey's has a peculiar taste. A week or so ago I saw Bergy's recipe and was anxious to try it. When I first made the chutney it had a very strong vinegar taste even though used only 3 cups of vinegar instead of 4. Bergy assured me it is a tried and true recipe for her. I added some more fruit and cooked it again the next day, then put it in the fridge to mellow for a week. It seems all it needed was time because now it has an excellent flavor, far better than Major Grey's. I will make it again but will still use the 3 cups of vinegar instead of 4. It just does not need that much vinegar in my opinion. One other thing I would recommend is to chop the ginger instead of grating, unless you have a microplane. Ginger is very fibrous and if you use a box grater the ginger gets stringy. A microplane does a good job, or if you slice the ginger, then cut the slices into julienne, then cut the julienne crosswise into tiny dice it eliminates the strings.
