Title: Tomato chutney question
Post by: banf77 on September 30, 2018, 09:05

Hi
Does anyone have a receipe for tomato chutney where I can use a varierty of all shades of ripeness, as I don't have enough of one or the other for recipes I've seen.
Thanks
Steve

I've used this one with a mix of green and barely ripe toms - cos I wanted to clear out the greenhouse.
Green Tomato Chutney Recipe (http://www.allotment-garden.org/recipe/906/green-tomato-chutney-recipe/)

I used ordinary onions, ground ginger instead of cardamom (cos that's what I had) and only 1 tablespoon of salt as one of the comments said it was too salty  :D

Hi Steve, I wouldn't worry about them all being the same degree of ripeness. I use Delia Smiths recipe as a basis and work from there.
It works for me, and it always sells quickly!

Scroll down the page to 2016.  It uses uptomatoes of  all sorts of shapes, sizes and ripeness, and is scrumptious  :D :D
