Hi Dottydaisy2 - There's nothing more satisfying then enjoying the "fruits of your labor." Is this one variety or three? Looks very tempting!

looks lovely Dd2..why do you have to wait 3 months? do you have to wait for all chutney or just this recipe?

I think it helps to improve the flavour and mature the chutney Sandra. Most chutneys need 1 - 3 months. I used to make green bean chutney a long time ago, don't bother anymore though.

They look so tasty Angela a lovely lot to put away in the store cupboard for the winter months even better when it''s your own home grown produce :o))

3 months is usually the minimum time for a chutney to mature, it takes out the harsh vinegar taste.

That was the cunning plan!!

Karen opened one of the smaller jars to try, lovely, if a tad sweet, used eating apples instead of cookers, will do half and half next time...?❗❗
