Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
12 ounces Pkg fresh Cranberries
1/2 Pineapple (Fresh) -OR-
1 small Can of canned Pineapple
1 1" long piece of fresh -- Ginger Root
1 small Hot Chili Pepper
1 medium Lemon
2 Whole Cloves (opt)
2 Allspice Berries -OR-
1/8 teaspoon Ground Allspice
1 Stick Cinnamon -OR-
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 cup Raisins
1/2 cup Dark Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Raspberry Vinegar
1 pinch Salt
1. Rinse and pick over Cranberries, discarding stems or blemished berries.
Peel, core and finely chop the Pineapple. Peel and grate or mince the
Ginger. Seed and mince the Chili. Remove two strips of zest from the lemon
with a vegetable peeler and extract the juice from the fruit. Tie the Lemon
zest and spices (if using whole spices) in a piece of cheesecloth, or just
add them to the pot.
2. Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Because of the Cranberry's high
acidity, they should not be placed in an aluminum or cast iron pan. Bring to
a boil. Reduce heat and simmer the chutney for 8-10 minutes, or until the
Cranberries begin to pop.
Correct the seasonings, adding more sugar, vinegar and lemon juice as needed;
the Chutney should be a little sweet a little sour and a little spicy.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Remove the cheesecloth
bundle.
