Ingredients

  • 16 peaches cored and chopped coarsely
  • 2 cups raisins
  • 2 cups pecans chopped
  • 2 ½ tablespoon sea salt
  • Juice of 5 lemons
  • 4 onions finely chopped
  • 4 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 4 hot peppers fresh or dried, chopped

Instructions

  • Combine the chopped pears with the raisins, pecans, sea salt, lemon juice, onions, ginger, and hot peppers.
    16 peaches, 2 cups raisins, 2 cups pecans, Juice of 5 lemons, 4 onions, 4 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 4 hot peppers, 2 ½ tablespoon sea salt
  • Place the mixture little by little in your fermentation jar, pounding it vigorously to release the juices.
  • Make sure the mixture fills the jar up to no more than 1 inch below the top (because of the expansion) and that the extracted water covers the mixture. If not, create a brine of 2 tablespoons sea salt to 4 cups water and add it to the mixture.
  • Press the vegetables and keep them under the brine by placing a plate or a lid on top, weighted down by a rock or a jug of water. Cover with a clean towel if needed to keep out fruit flies.
  • Place the fermentation jar in a warm spot in your kitchen and allow the chutney to ferment for 2 to 4 days.
  • Check on it from time to time to be sure that the brine covers the vegetables and to remove any mold that may form on the surface.
  • A good way to know when it’s ready is to taste it during the fermentation process and move it to the refrigerator when you’re satisfied with the taste.
