Categories     Cherries

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-5 half pints

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups chopped pitted sour cherries (Tart)
1 1/2 cups finely chopped red onions
2 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon pickling salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Prepare jars, lids and bands.
  • In a large pot, combine cherries, onion, brown sugar, mustard, salt, pepper, cloves and vinegar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often.
  • Reduce heat and boil gently, stirring occasionally, for about 40 minutes or until onions are translucent and mixture is slightly thickened.
  • Ladle into prepared jars leaving a 1/2" headspace. Check for air bubbles. Adjust headspace if needed. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Adjust time according to your altitude.
  • NOTE: If using frozen sweetened sour cherries, measure when frozen, let thaw and drain off half the juice. Reduce brown sugar by 2 tablespoons.

Tips:

  • Select ripe and firm sour cherries: Choose sour cherries that are plump, brightly colored, and free of blemishes. Avoid cherries that are bruised or soft, as these may not be suitable for making chutney.
  • Use a variety of spices and flavors: Feel free to experiment with different spices and flavors to create a unique chutney. Some popular options include ginger, garlic, cinnamon, cloves, and star anise. You can also add a touch of sweetness with sugar or honey.
  • Simmer the chutney until it reaches the desired consistency: The cooking time for sour cherry chutney can vary depending on the desired consistency. For a thicker chutney, simmer for a longer period of time. For a thinner chutney, simmer for a shorter period of time.
  • Store the chutney properly: Once the chutney is ready, store it in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator. Properly stored chutney can last for several weeks.

Conclusion:

Sour cherry chutney is a versatile condiment that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. It can be served as a side dish with grilled meats or fish, or it can be used as a sandwich spread or dipping sauce. It is a great way to use up fresh sour cherries and add a unique flavor to your meals. With its sweet and tangy flavor, sour cherry chutney is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
