EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

This tart chutney goes well with any cooked meat. If you'd rather prefer it on the sweeter side, increase the sugar to 1 1/2 cups.

Golden raisins come from the same grape as regular raisins. The golden version, though, is treated with sulphur dioxide, to prevent darkening, and then dried with artificial heat. The result: A plumper, moister raisin that's pale gold in color.

I like the basic recipe here but it is way too sweet for chutney. I would add a 1/4 cup of apple cider and a jalapeno or two minced. Cut back the white sugar to a half a cup.
