Apple Chutney - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 lb. green cooking apples, peeled, cored and coarsely diced
    1 lb. coarsely chopped onions
    2 c. white seedless raisins
    2 c. dark brown sugar
    1 1/2 c. malt vinegar
    1 Tbsp. crushed mustard seed
    1 1/2 tsp. mixed pickling
    spice tied in cheesecloth
    1/2 tsp. ground ginger
    1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
Preparation
    In heavy 4 to 5-quart pot, combine apples, onions, raisins, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard seed, pickling spice, ginger and cayenne pepper.
    Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 2 hours, or until most of the liquid has cooked away and the mixture is thick enough to hold its shape in a spoon.
    Stir often to prevent the chutney from sticking.
    Remove from heat and ladle into hot sterilized jars.
    Makes 3 pints.
