So these goodies don't get lost in the middle of another thread, thot I'd repost them here - it's that time of year!!

This is from Lorraine - I've made this one and it's so good.

CRANBERRY-APPLE CHUTNEY - LORRAINE

Lorraine: "I made this one to give away as gifts last Christmas. Now, I always have some on hand. It goes well with chicken , turkey, duck, pork. I used it on the cheese and fruit platter last weekend."

2 tsp (10 ml) vegetable oil
1/2 cup (125 ml) finely chopped onion
1 Tbsp (15 ml) minced peeled ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 cups (625 ml) cranberries about 10 oz (300g) bag
1 medium apple, peeled, cored and roughly chopped
3/4 cup (175 ml) brown sugar
1/2 cup (75 ml) apple cider
1/4 cup (50 ml) cider vinegar
1/2 tsp (2ml) salt
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground ginger i use 1 Tbsp fresh grated
Pinch of hot red chili flakes
2 star anise
1 cinnamon stick

Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oinion, ginger, and garlic, cook for several minutes until softened slightly. Add remaining ingredients.

Cover, increase heat and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally for 25 - 35 minutes, or until chutney has thickened. Let cool.

Makes 2 cups.

I quadruple the batch, sterilize 250 ml jars, add hot chutney to hot jar, process in water bath 10 minutes.

This one is from Dollop -

Here is a recipe that we enjoy with chicken or pork:

Red Onion Jam Yields about 1-1/2 cups.
Make this a day ahead and refrigerate; warm it gently before serving.

7 T unsalted butter
2 medium-large red onions, halved and thinly sliced crosswise (about 6 cups)
1/2 cup dry white wine
6 T honey
3 T Balsamic vinegar
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed (3- or 4-quart) saucepan over medium heat.
Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they're very soft but not brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium low if they start to brown.
Add the wine and honey, reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick and jammy, another 20 to 30 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the vinegar; season with salt and pepper to taste

Re: Chutneys, Relishes, Etc. - Lorraine - 08-27-2006

Great idea, Jean! Here's one I made this weekend:

Curried Apple Chutney

9 cups (2.2 L) peeled, cored, chopped apples
2 cups (475 ml) finely chopped onion
2 cups (475 ml) golden raisins
2 cups (475 ml) brown sugar
1 1/2 cups (360 ml) cider vinegar
1 Tbsp (15 ml) mustard seeds
1 1/2 tsp (7.5 ml) salt
1 tsp (5 ml) dried chili flakes
1 tsp (5 ml) garam masala
1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) EACH turmeric, cumin, coriander,cardamom and ginger

Prepare preserving jars.

Combine all the ingredients in your preserving pot. Bring to a boil over medium - high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce hear to medium and simmer for 1 - 1 1/2 hours, or until thickened, stirring often. Stir almost constantly during the last 15 - 20 minutes to prevent scorching.

Remove from the heat. Ladle the chutney into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Re-adjust head space. Wipe the rims clean. Seal according to manufacturer's directions. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

I added a bit more garam masala than called for, and some chopped candied ginger to it.

Makes 7 to 8 8oz (250 ml) jars.

Pineapple Chutney

Recipe By :cliveb - C2C
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Condiments-Sauces

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 pounds fresh pineapple -- chopped
4 cloves garlic -- chopped
2 inches fresh ginger -- minced
1 1/2 cups wine vinegar
1 cup golden raisins
1 pound sugar
6 large fresh chili peppers -- minced

Put all ingredients in a heavy bottomed pan and bring to the boil. Turn to a simmer, then cook for around 40 minutes.

You may find there's too much liquid at the end for your liking. Bottle your chutney and save the liquid. Put it in the refrigerator. It goes great with anything fried, or as an exotic addition to an Asian Salad. Or, just find some fresh farmer's white cheese....fry til it begins to melt then bathe with pineapple chutney juice.

I've made all of these, and they are tasty. Made the Mango Chutney about 4 times and have one pint left.

These all sound very good indeed. Is there a way to tell how many pint or quart jars each recipe will make??


Re: Chutneys, Relishes, Etc. - bjcotton - 08-27-2006

If I remember right, all the ones I listed make about 5-6 cups.

Plum Chutney
From Pickles, Relishes & Chutneys Gail Duff

The recipe does not say to process in a water bath, but I have always processed the 250 ml jars for 10 minutes.

Prepare jars according to manufacturer's instructions.

5 cups pitted and chopped plums ( about 2 lbs whole)
2 large cooking apples, peeled, cored, and chopped (about 4 cups)
4 onions, chopped
3 cups raisins
2 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 1/2 cups white vinegar

Put all ingredients into preserving pot or non reactive saucepan, and bring to a boil. Simmer about 1 hour, or until chutney is thick, stirring occasionaly.

Ladle hot chutney into preserving jars to within 1/2 inch of top. Remove air bubbles. Re-adjust head space. Wipe rims clean. Seal. Process in hot water bath 10 minutes. Let sit 1 month before using.

Hmmmm, wonder if the C@H folks will pick up on the fact that their subscribers love chutneys and such...
