Sometime soon I'll have to stop making chutney

Is it cast iron? If so it may leave a metallic taste in the chutney.

I used my Le Creuset for a while - it didn't have any chips in the enamel lining and I didn't notice a metallic taste but I bow to Val's advice 

My le creuset pot is a really old one, as i said inherited of Mum, so I don't think I'll risk making a load of horrible chutney in it after what i have read on here.
I was dropping subtle hints about having a preserving pan in my Christmas stocking this year today to Mum.
She rambled on a bit about how we were all really too old for stockings any more as she does every year. (i'm 35 and my eldest brother is 40  )
She then warned me not to start pilfering all her preserving jars IF I got one in my stocking. 
So I think the hint has been taken. 

I have to say it will have to be quite an enormous stocking!

Lol 
Thats what we use at Christmas!..... pillowcases instead of stockings!

Sorry for going really off topic, but my Mum always makes one up for us every year as she has done since we were kids (with Santa's help obviously)
She even packages one up and sends it to my 40 year old brother in the USA. 

I think she is secretly happy at my preserving pan idea as she always likes to put something useful in there now we are all grown up. I got a dish drainer last year. 

Pickled beetroot tonight
