Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 lb Green tomatoes
1/2 lb Tart green apples
6 Dried chili peppers (each
1" long)
1/2 lb Peeled shallots or small
Onions
1/2 c Packed golden raisins
1 c Packed dark brown sugar
1 tb Grated crystallized ginger
1 1/2 ts Minced garlic (about 3
Cloves)
1 1/4 c Cider vinegar

Cut the tomatoes into 1/2 inch cubes, to measure about
6 cups. Peel, core, and slice the apples, to measure
about 2 cups. If you are using dried whole chiles,
break them up and remove some seeds, if you want a
milder chutney. For easy peeling of the shallots or
onions, first cover them with boiling water, stir,
drain, and immerse in cold water to prevent their
cooking. Drain again, and peel. Place all the
ingredients in a wide 4-quart saucepan, bring to a
boil quickly, and boil about 30 minutes, or until the
chutney is as thick as jam. Stir occasionally to
prevent sticking. Ladle into hot, sterilized jars,
seal, cool, label, and store. Makes 3 pints (Note:
Shallots are preferred, but if you use onions,
substitute either
: raw pearl onions or frozen small boiling
onions)
