I still had a few pears from the orchard and the figs are almost finished. Why not a Pear & Fig chutney? Easily done!

This is everything a chutney should be. The flavors of the pears, combined with the figs' texture and sweetness, the plump raisins and blend of vinegars easily marry to the aromatic spices. And a quality cracked black pepper brings just the right amount of bite to the dish.

And, yes, AWESOME with certain bold cheeses...

This recipe will produce about 12 oz. of very useful fruit chutney.

Инструкции

  1. In a medium saucepan, place the pears, figs, vinegars and heat over medium for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add all the spices and the honey and bring to a boil, stirring frequently to combine and prevent caramelization
  3. Reduce to a simmer and stir occasionally to reduce the liquids, about 20 minutes
  4. Add the black pepper and stir for another 15 minutes
  5. When the mixture has thickened to a jammy consistency, you can spoon the chutney into 2 pint jars, filling one full and the second half way
  6. Refrigerate for two or three days
  7. Try this on nice slices of ham baked and cut off the bone, most pork cuts and roast lamb, or well-seasoned fowl.

      Amos this sounds awesome. I've been looking for a fig relish or chutney to top brie. Thanks for sharing!

        This is just what I was looking for! I am attending a wine and cheese party this weekend, and was asked to bring an appetizer platter. Cheese platter, assorted crackers, and this wonderful looking chutney!! Not so boring a platter after all, thanks to you!
        Thanks for sharing, Amos.

          I love chutney, and pears are my favorite fruit for winter. What could be better. Plus, the gentle blend of spices makes my mouth extremely happy.

          I made a small batch for myself; now I may do this for holiday gifts too.

              This sounds delicious. How long will the chutney last in an unopened jar and how long after opening?
              Thank you

                Hi, Cate - Thanks for your inquiry! Since this only make a couple o6 6-oz jars of this chutney, Manchego, Camembert, and goat cheeses will pair well with this chutney. Refrigerate both opened and unopened jars and they should retain flavor and quality for at least 6 weeks. An opened jar, if left too long, may 'turn', and should be discarded is you see and form of mould on the surface. The vinegars inhibit mould formation and enhance the spices. This is a chutney for a party, wine tasting, or appetizer tray and you can expect one jar will disappear with a well-planed cheese and meat tray. Be well and enjoy!

                  Hi, Judee - That is EXACTLY what I am serving ot warm up New Year's Eve at our place. I am plating an assortment of cheeses and pairing them with the Pear & Fig Chutney, the Fig with Rosemary & Lemon, and the Fig with Orange & Honey combinations I preserved this Autumn. I am sure the guests will enjoy the comparisons and the pairings. Let me know if you follow through!

                    Amos,
                    I am a fig lover and this recipe sounds like an interesting sauce for a variety of uses. I think this would be great with a cheese platter for the holidays!

                          Hi, Pat - I like it with appetizer cheeses. Have not tried Brie, but it balances well with some of the stronger cheeses. And very bright with a Manchego. Thanks for the encouragement and great to hear from you, as always!
