Chriss Pineapple And Ginger Chutney Food

GOLDEN PINEAPPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the allspice and the vinegar. Allow to stand for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast the allspice berries in a small saucepan until they just begin to smoke. Add the vinegar, bring to a simmer, and reduce to 1/4 cup. Strain, and discard the allspice berries.
• Combine the reduced vinegar with the fruit mixture in a large heavy saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 20 to 30 minutes until the liquid is almost syrupy. Refrigerated, this will keep for up to 3 months.

FISH WITH PINEAPPLE CHUTNEY

OLD FASHIONED SCOTTISH APPLE AND GINGER CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Place all the prepared onions and apples into a large preserving pan and add the remaining ingredients.
• Bring slowly to the boil and then lower the heat so that chutney cooks at a rolling boil.
• Stir the chutney regularly and make sure it does not "catch" and burn on the base of the preserving pan.
• Keep on cooking until the chutney is the consistency of a thick jam and all the liquids have dissolved.
• (A trick to check if it is cooked is to draw your wooden spoon across the chutney, if the space that is left fills up with liquid, the chutney is not ready yet!).
• Spoon the hot chutney into hot and sterile jars and seal immediately.
• Makes about 4 lbs chutney.
• Store in a dark and cool place and leave to mature for at least 2 weeks.
• Will keep in ideal storage conditions for up to 2 years+.
