CHUTNEY!! - the second coming ; )

that is really impressive ~ i know a supermarket that could do with some of those on the shelves!!! im sure you have plenty!

they look so good all stacked in your cupboard, that cucumber one looks really delicious, and pretty! and the green toms ~ really nice

but the soup ~ oooooh that made me very hungry!

fab job and great blog, thanks stevie

ouch, you've been very busy Stevie:) The sliced green toms remainded me bit of green alien's faces - saying: 'is the spinning over yet? we're bit exhausted by now...;-)
lol..
Well done there. Hope they'll make nice X-mass pressies:)

You must be hungry after all that - how about some nice chutney on toast?

Wow, I am well impressed.......all you need is a cheese large enough to eat with it lol

I can confirm that tomatoe soup was delish : )

yes i though I wouldn't bore folk with several chutney blogs ; ) but hold back a bit so i looked busyier ; )

yes I hope to give more aay as little extra xmas gifts this year so i'm not left with a mountain but am wondering already just what cheese to get in : )

cheddar!!!

but you could always have a little tasting to check which is best!!

The Tomato Soup would be improved with a tablespoon of Double Strength Tomato Puree Stevie.
Otherwise yours is the same as I make. Freezes well.

ah yes didn't have any puree in the cupboard DB but you cant have it all eh : ) next time

Seriously strong cheddar? Stilton? and my fave. Cambouzola.... really creamy and tasty on crusty bread, Stevie maybe you should invest in a bread maker!!!! I purchased one a year ago and havn't bought shop bread since.
Brilliant blog... such a buzy bee, you put me to shame. Nice ribbon round the neck of the jars would look good too, a perfect gift.

yummy, cheddar, stilton and cambouzola!!! crusty bread really good ~ bread makers are great ~ i wore mine out though :-(

how about local welsh cheddar cheese Stevie? it's quite good and you should support your local businesses, lol.
Bread maker - hmmm - would be nice;-)
For how long have you had it Sticki?

cheddar, stilton love them and will have to look into Cambouzola more, sounds fab.
i do like doing the bread mix now and then GM but yes maybe a xmas pressie suggestion there : )

Well kasy, when the locality buy my chutneys n pickles ; )

Great blog Stevie,I just would not know where to start.looks very tasty.excellent job.

Oh god I'm confused!
Quick//hide last years chutney...

Well done STT and the soup looked yum.

Thanks Suey, the chutneys will take 3 weeks to get going so into the cupboard fro xmas.
No Lulu all can be recycled ; )

Cambouzola(not sure if spelt right!) is a mix of gorgonzola and camembert, very tasty with chutney & chunky bread. (home made of course!) Maybe write to Santa Stevie!!

First comment: Big impression from kitchen impressario ST.
Second: I like when man is cooking, Jamie Oliver was my favourite :)
Third: Absolutely great gift for X-mas :)))
Fourth: I missed comment on herbs and spices - did you put there any?
Fifth: We eat chutney with meat. Do you eat it with cheese?
Sixth: Absolutistic blog :))))

Found this on Wiki...
Cambozola is a cow's milk cheese that is a combination of a French soft-ripened triple cream cheese and Italian Gorgonzola....
Told you it was yummy.(tesco sell it)

does santa bring cambozola cheese?

its soft and creamy, brilliant with crusty bread

sorry kasy i thought i had answered your question but must have typed it and forgotten to click 'add comment'!!
i think it may be 3 or 4 years old now ~ hadnt realised, thought it was only 2.

katarina have you seen james martin cooking?

No, I watch "With Italian in the kitchen" and Jamie Oliver long time ago. Why?

Ok its on my list GM : )
Kat, i knew i wouldn't get away with it, i'll have to try n remember what i did but followed my basic recipes (sort of ; ). I'll put the links on and then what I did.

I don't even dare to think how much it would cost to buy it from you Stevie, lol. Made with such a passion, lol. Are you going to put some on your plant sale bench? or you making a new one? lol

Sticki.....sorry in reply to comment way up the page, Santa will bring you anything, (if you have been good!!)

About 60 ish.....days Sticki, not too long ;)

thats quite a challenge!

Ok firstly for Katarina, I have put a bit of extra info on the end. Didn't use any one specific recipe but have put on the main spices : )

Thanks folks
not sure it would be legal on the plant bench Kasy, something now in the news about second hand jars!
Junna of course, maybe one day : )
cheers

Hm, Steve, thank you for making this appendix for me, but I think it would be useful for all who are your followers. By the way, who are those sultannas whom you tossed into the chutney?
My knowledge of chutney (chat net, lol, sorry, I am bit drowsy) started and finished in Mark and Spencer. That is spicy, sweet and normal. We do here normal chutnet, e.g. tomatoes, pepper, onion, paprika - and add it to meat.
I would recommend you to buy some nice paper, and put it on the lids and fix it with some ribbon in a suitable colour and you have very nice home made present for gurmains :))

Come xmas Kat presents they shall be with some nice wrapping as well, with a few for the evening table

catch up lol
u have been busy, not had good gardening year here steve so no chutney this year or any homemade stuff full stop, so will just drool over your cooking efforts haha

Well the toms in the polytunnel were the only bit of good news on my patch Sandra. Still hunting for the potatoes!!
I have also recycled some of the failed relish experiment from last year and made something quite tasty, more to come...haha : )

Would that be something beginning with 'M' Stevie?!!

oh yes indeedy

To think that I nearly missed this , Stevie .
I was just thinking "I wonder if he's made any this year."
I'm knee deep in what should have been green tomato chutney , but half have gone red with having to wait so long for attention .(OH was getting a bit alarmed that it was taking me so long to get around to it .)
Anyway , in went the toms, some apple , onions , raisens ,spices and .....too much white vinegar . It wouldn't boil down much ! back to the store cupboard ;apricots , dates , and I think we're there !
Only got to pot it up now !
Well done you , should set you up for another year .

Thanks Driad, Well the toms were sat there for a while and alot of mine went off or red so the red went to soup, but still plenty of jars worth. I agree sometimes you need a couple of trys to get it how you want it : )
