PEACH/MANGO/JALAPENO CHUTNEY (CANNING RECIPE)

Steps:

• 1. Wash and dry your canning jars and lids. Place a large saucepan on stove with water and bring water to a hard boil. Reduce heat and place your jars and lids only not your rings in to sterilize them, leave them be. Prepare your fruits by cleaning and dicing them.
• 2. In a medium stainless steel saucepan, add your ingredients.
• 3. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 10 minutes till onions have softened. Chutney is done, so you can either transfer the mixture to a container when cool and keep in fridge to use within 1 week, or.... cover and keep chutney hot for canning, instructions below. Using tongs, (or if you have a canner, the jar lifter) take out the sterilized jars and lids from the water bath and dry them. Bring temperature up to high and let the water boil again. Working quickly, you want hot jars and a hot mixture. Fill your sterilized jar with the chutney mixture leaving 1/4 - 1/2 inch of head space. Center lids on jars and then using the rings, tighten them. You want a good seal. Place jars in the water bath (water should be well above 2 inches over the jars), and boil them for approximately 10 minutes. Remove from bath and let cool. Once cool, using your fingertip, press on the lid, it should be firmly in place. Yield: 5 half pint jars

FRESH PEACH CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Put the vinegar and both sugars into a non-reactive pot, place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Add the red pepper, onion, jalapeño, raisins, garlic, ginger, salt and simmer 10 minutes. Add the peach segments and simmer an additional 5-10 minutes. If the peaches are still firm allow to cook several minutes more. If you would like the syrup thicker you may also allow to cook for a minute or two to reduce liquid.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes in the pot. Serve at room temperature. Transfer all excess to a clean container and refrigerate, covered, for up to one week.
