Peaches 2013
Got peaches? Our peach crop wasn’t anything near great this year, but our two little peach trees did produce enough peaches that I could make a batch of spicy peach chutney.  I am so glad I decided on the chutney for the use of our few peaches.  This stuff is incredible and has a thousand uses!

Peach Chutney cooking
I added garlic, chili powder, mustard seed, brown sugar, vinegar and raisins.  All this is cooked over medium heat for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until the mixture thickens.  The chutney is ladled into hot sterilized jars, sealed, and processed according to safe canning measures.  Click HERE for canning procedures from PickYourOwn.org.

    • About six 1/2 pints. It may be a little more based on how much your peaches cook down. I have gotten 7 half-pints out of this recipe when I had a little more juice. Hope this helps!
