Provided by Kevin West

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Nectarine     Peach     Edible Gift     Jalapeño

Yield Yields 4 pints

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 pounds yellow peaches or nectarines, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 cups organic or turbinado sugar
2 cups apple-cider vinegar
3/4 cup raisins
1 cup chopped Vidalia onion
1 sweet banana pepper or 1/2 yellow bell pepper, diced
2 or 3 fresh green jalapeños, diced, or adjust to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root
2 teaspoons freshly grated turmeric, or 1/2 teaspoon ground
4 tablespoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon garam masala (a ground spice mixture containing pepper, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, coriander, nutmeg, cumin, and star anise)
2 teaspoons Darjeeling tea (or 4 tea bags)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all the ingredients in a deep pot, and bring to a boil. Moderate the heat, and reduce for as long as an hour, until all the excess liquid boils away and what remains is thick and jamlike in texture. Be sure to taste the chutney at several points, and adjust the seasonings to your preference. Chutney should be deeply flavored and complex, with at least a bit of spicy heat. If you like the bright taste of green chilies, add more minced jalapeños during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • 2. Ladle the hot chutney into four prepared pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal, and process in a boiling-water bath for 10 minutes. Allow to cure for a month before eating.

NECTARINE AND PINEAPPLE CHUTNEY



Nectarine and Pineapple Chutney image

My son just gave me 5kg (11lb) nectarines, so I made three times this recipe. It took a bit longer for the larger amount to thicken, but it eventually cooked up beautifully. It's a sweetish chutney that will go super well with pork and poultry.

Categories     Fruit

Time 2h

Yield 2 1/2 pints

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup white vinegar
2 1/2 lbs ripe yellow nectarines, peel on and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice (not heavy syrup)
1 cup golden raisin
3 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1 inch piece fresh gingerroot, peeled and finely grated
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1/2 cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Place the sugar and vinegar in a large, nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 10 minutes.
  • Add the nectarines, pineapple and juices, raisins, garlic, ginger, salt, chili flakes and cloves, and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a slow simmer. Cook until the chutney is thick, stirring frequently to keep the mixture from scorching or sticking, 60 to 90 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the nuts. Pour the hot chutney into hot, sterilized glass jars. Seal tightly, following standard hot-pack canning procedures. Cool completely, then store out of direct light for up to 1 year. Once opened, refrigerate the chutney.

Tips:

1. Choose the Right Nectarines: Select ripe and firm nectarines with deep orange or yellow-orange color. Avoid fruits with blemishes or bruises. 2. Prepare the Nectarines: Wash and pit the nectarines. Cut them into small pieces or slices for even cooking and better flavor distribution. 3. Use a Variety of Spices: Experiment with different spices to create unique flavor profiles. Common spices used in nectarine chutney include ginger, garlic, chili peppers, cumin, coriander, and cinnamon. 4. Balance the Sweetness and Acidity: Nectarines are naturally sweet, so balance their sweetness with tart ingredients like vinegar, lemon juice, or tamarind paste. This creates a well-rounded flavor profile. 5. Cook Slowly and Patiently: Chutney making is a slow process that requires patience. Simmer the chutney over low heat until it reaches the desired consistency, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. 6. Sterilize the Jars: To ensure the longevity and safety of your homemade chutney, sterilize the jars and lids by boiling them in water for 10 minutes before filling. 7. Store Properly: Once the chutney is made, store it in sterilized jars in a cool, dark place. Properly sealed and stored chutney can last for several months.

Conclusion:

Creating homemade nectarine chutney is a rewarding culinary experience that allows you to enjoy the deliciousness of this versatile fruit in a unique way. With proper ingredient selection, careful preparation, and attention to detail, you can craft a chutney that perfectly complements your favorite dishes and delights your taste buds. Experiment with different flavor combinations and techniques to create your own signature nectarine chutney that will impress your family and friends. Happy cooking!
