Ingredients
-
2 lbs tomatoes (peeled)
2 peaches (peeled and pitted)
2 lbs ripe pears (peeled and cored)
2 large green peppers (seeded and chopped)
2 cups brown sugar (firmly packed)
1 cup white vinegar
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon dry mustard
3 dashes Tabasco sauce (or to taste)
1 (4 ounce) jar diced pimentos
Preparation
-
Dice the tomatoes, peaches and pears; you should have about 8 cups total.
Place the peaches and pears in a 5 quart pot along with the peppers, sugar, vinegar, salt, ginger, mustard and Tabasco.
Bring to a boil over high heat.
Stir in the tomatoes, reduce the heat to medium and boil gently, uncovered and stirring often, until mixture thickens slightly. About 1 hour.
Stir in the pimentos.
Boil gently, uncovered and stirring often until thickened. About 10-15 minutes.
Put into prepared canning jars and store in a cool place.
I doubt this chutney will last long, so you might want to make more.
Bon Appetit!
