OLD FASHIONED GREEN TOMATO CHUTNEY



Old Fashioned Green Tomato Chutney image

Old fashioned green tomato chutney (relish) is an excellent way to use leftover green tomatoes at the end of the season. This easy, 60-year-old family recipe has been passed down through several generations and is glossy, with a robust flavour - and is the perfect combination of sweet and savoury. Incredible when spread over a burger or steak sandwich, it is also perfect with crackers, cheeses and grilled or cold meats.

Categories     Appetizer

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1.35 kg green (un-ripe) tomatoes (chopped)
2 large onions (500 grams, finely diced)
2 tablespoons salt (regular table salt)
3 cups white sugar
95 ml Ezy sauce (*OR see ingredients below for a homemade spiced pickling vinegar as an alternative to Ezy sauce. )
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon cornflour
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
15 grams whole cloves
7 grams chilli flakes (mild)
15 grams whole black peppercorns
30 grams ginger (fresh, peeled and roughly chopped)
400- 500 ml double strength white vinegar (8% acidity)

Steps:

  • Add the cloves, chilli, peppercorn and ginger to a glass jar with a 500ml capacity. Add 400-500ml of the vinegar (to the top of the jar) and cover with the lid. Leave to sit for at least 12 hours (but it can be made weeks ahead and will be more flavourful the longer it sits).
  • Before using, the vinegar must be strained and the cloves, chilli, pepper and ginger discarded. *Please note you will not need to use all of the spiced vinegar in this recipe. Only 95ml is required (same quantities as Ezy sauce). The rest can be stored in your pantry.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the tomatoes, onions and salt and stir together. Cover and set aside in a refrigerator for 12 hours, overnight if possible.
  • Add the tomato mixture (including the excess liquid from the tomatoes) to a large pot. Bring to the boil over low heat. When boiling, add the sugar and 95ml of Ezy sauce (or 95ml of the homemade spiced pickling vinegar) and stir.
  • Gently simmer over low heat, uncovered, for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Make sure the chutney doesn't catch on the bottom of the pan as it thickens, or it will burn.
  • Remove from the heat and stir the relish mix into a chunky paste. Add the mustard powder, curry powder, cornflour and turmeric. Stir and return to a low heat for a further ten minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the hot chutney to sterilised jars and seal. Enjoy!

GREEN TOMATO AND MINT CHUTNEY



Green Tomato and Mint Chutney image

This is a good use for end-of-season green tomatoes, and this chutney just might go well on a hamburger.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Yield Makes 6 half-pint jars

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large bunch mint, roughly chopped
4 pounds green tomatoes
2 yellow onions (1 pound), finely diced
1 1/2 cups white vinegar
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • Place a large stockpot of water over high heat, and bring to a boil. Cut a 1-foot square of cheesecloth. Place mint in center, and form a bundle; secure with kitchen twine, and set aside. Prepare an ice bath, and set aside.
  • Remove core at stem end of each tomato, and cut an "X" in the skin at the other end. Drop tomatoes in boiling water, 3 at a time, and cook until skins begin to loosen or crack, about 8 minutes. Plunge into ice bath. Using a paring knife, peel off skin and discard. Repeat with remaining tomatoes. Cut tomatoes into 3/4-inch chunks, and set aside.
  • Combine onions, vinegar, mint bundle, sugar, salt, raisins, and 1 cup water in a low-sided, 6-quart saucepan. Set over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil.
  • Add tomatoes, and reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
  • Increase heat to high, and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until almost all liquid has been absorbed, about 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and discard the mint bundle.
  • Transfer to a large bowl set over an ice bath to chill; store in airtight container, refrigerated, up to 4 weeks.

PORK WITH GREEN TOMATO CHUTNEY



Pork with Green Tomato Chutney image

Don't pick up soft green colored heirloom tomatoes for this recipe! The chutney here needs tart, firm underripe green tomatoes that are easy to find towards the end of tomato season. They can be simmered without totally losing their shape and balance the bit of sweetness expected in a chutney.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 sweet onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 unripe green tomatoes (about 1 pound), cored and chopped
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme, plus 1 large sprig
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick; 8 ounces each)
2 cups microwavable wild rice blend, for serving
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus more for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, thyme sprig, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a generous grinding of pepper; stir well to coat. Add 1 cup water, the vinegar and brown sugar and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring and mashing the tomatoes as they soften, until the mixture thickens but is still chunky, adding a splash of water toward the end if needed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, season the pork all over with salt, pepper and the chopped thyme. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning, until just cooked through but still a touch rosy in the center, about 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board to rest, 5 minutes.
  • Divide the rice among plates. Stir any accumulated juices from the pork into the tomato chutney along with the parsley. Divide the pork and chutney among the plates. Top with more parsley.

2 Vidalia or other sweet onions, finely diced
1 cup golden raisins

  • Using a slotted spoon, remove cinnamon sticks. At this point, chutney can be cooled and served, or canned: Ladle chutney into clean canning jars, and wipe excess from rims; screw on lids.
  • Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil over high heat. Using canning tongs, gently place jars in boiling water, making sure the water covers the jars (if not, pour in additional water to cover). Let jars sit in gently simmering water for 10 minutes. Remove; let cool slightly. Check seal by pressing in center of lid. If it doesn't pop back, it is properly sealed; if it does, return jars to water for 10 more minutes. Let sealed jars cool completely.
  • Store unopened jars in a cool, dark place up to 6 months. Opened jars will keep in the refrigerator up to 3 weeks.

GREEN TOMATO CHUTNEY



Green Tomato Chutney image

Provided by Robert Farrar Capon

Categories     condiments, project

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 7 pints of chutney

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 8-ounce packages tamarind (available in Oriental groceries)
2 whole lemons, seeded and chopped
10 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
10 cups chopped green tomatoes
6 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups seeded raisins
1 1/2 cups seeded muscat raisins, cut up
1 1/2 cups peeled, chopped ginger root
1 tablespoon salt, or as desired
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or as desired
4 cups cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Pour boiling water (about 2 cups) over the tamarind and let stand until cool. Place a sieve over a bowl and work the tamarind in it with your fingers, pressing the pulp through the sieve and leaving the seeds in it. Add hot water as you work to facilitate the separation of seeds from pulp.
  • Put the tamarind pulp and liquid into a deep, heavy pot, add all other ingredients and simmer, uncovered, about 1 hour, or until the mixture is reduced to a saucelike consistency.
  • Put the mixture into sterilized jars, cover with canning lids and bands and process in a water-bath canning kettle for 30 minutes. Cool, tighten bands and store until needed.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, unblemished green tomatoes. Avoid tomatoes that are soft, bruised, or have blemishes, as these will not produce a good chutney.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the tomatoes. This will help to prevent the tomatoes from bruising and will make it easier to cut them into even pieces.
  • Remove the seeds from the tomatoes. This is optional, but it will help to reduce the amount of liquid in the chutney and make it less sour.
  • Use fresh mint leaves. Dried mint leaves will not have the same flavor as fresh mint leaves, so be sure to use fresh mint if possible.
  • Add sugar to taste. The amount of sugar you add will depend on how sweet you like your chutney. Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste.
  • Simmer the chutney for at least 30 minutes. This will help to develop the flavors of the chutney and make it thick and syrupy.
  • Store the chutney in a clean, airtight container. The chutney will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Green tomato and mint chutney is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is perfect for grilled meats, fish, or vegetables, and can also be used as a dipping sauce for samosas or pakoras. The chutney is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and iron. So next time you have a few green tomatoes on hand, don't let them go to waste - make a batch of green tomato and mint chutney!
