Golden Pear Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients into a large preserving pan, except the pears and the tomatoes - leave them to one side for now.
• Simmer for about 30 - 45 minutes - stirring all the time until the mixture is reduced and syrupy.
• (It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and not be too runny.).
• Add the pears and the tomatoes and continue to cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the pears are just soft.
• Pour into hot and sterilised jars - seal and then store the chutney in a cool, dark place.
• It is better eaten after 1-2 months.
• This chutney keeps for up to 2 years.

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, combine red pepper, onion, jalepeno, vinegar, honey, and allspice. Heat to boiling over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.
• Add pears and raisins and return to boiling. Cook chutney, stirring occasionally, 5 to 8 minutes longer or until pears just start to soften.
• Meanwhile, in large kettle, cover 2 pint or 4 half-pint canning jars with water and heat to boiling over high heat; boil 10 minutes to sterilize. Drain jars on clean towel. In small saucepan, cover the jar lids and bands with water and heat to simmering. Remove from heat and leave lids and bands in water until ready to use
• Spoon chutney into drained, hot jars Fill to within 1/2-inch of top of jars. Wipe rims of jars with damp cloth and seal with lids and bands. Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes. Cool jars; label and store in cool, dark, dry place.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• 2. Toss the pears with the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, the cinnamon, and cloves. Coat a sheet pan with half the vegetable oil. Set the pears cut side down on the pan. Brush the pears with the remaining oil. Roast until caramelized and tender, 40 to 50 minutes, depending on the degree of ripeness. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
• 3. While the pears are roasting, bring the remaining ingredients to a boil in a nonreactive saucepan. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• 4. Using a small spoon or a melon baller, scoop out the cores of the cooked pears. Cut the pears into 1/2-inch slices.
• 5. Combine the pears and the onion mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 day before serving.

Steps:

• Cook the pears in water to cover until they are medium-soft. Drain, saving the water, then make a syrup of the water in which the pears were cooked and the brown sugar by boiling in a large nonreactive pot until thick, about 20 to 30 minutes. While the syrup is boiling, add the remaining ingredients to the pears, then mix everything together and cook for about 30 minutes or until the raisins are softened, the onions are transparent, and the chutney has a good thick consistency. Transfer to sterilized jars and seal; process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Put the sugar, cider vinegar, perry, star anise, cumin, red onions and ginger in a large saucepan and bring to the boil.
• Add the pears and chillies and simmer for 40 mins until the liquid is syrupy and the pears are just cooked. Stir in the sultanas, remove from the heat and leave to cool, then spoon into sterilised jars.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread walnuts in a single layer on a small rimmed baking sheet, and toast until fragrant and browned, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool, and roughly chop. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot, and saute until softened, about 2 minutes. Add pears, vinegar, honey, and cloves. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until pears are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard cloves, and stir in raisins and reserved walnuts. Remove from heat. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In large preserving kettle or dutch oven, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
• Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 1 1/2 hours, continuing to stir occasionally.
• Remove from heat and pour into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/8 inch headspace. Add lids and rings and process jars in a boiling water bath in a canner for 15 minutes. Take the canner off the heat and let water stop boiling before removing jars. Carefully remove jars and let sit. As they cool, the jars will seal themselves with a"pop". Label, and store in cool, dry, dark place.
• To prepare the jars, I first wash them in the dishwasher, or in the sink with very hot, soapy water, then rinse them well and put them in a warm oven, taking the jars out one or two at a time when filling them.
• I soak the lids in very hot water and put them immediately from the hot water onto the filled jars, making sure the rims of the jars are clean, then add the rings (which I've also soaked in hot water) and screw them on the jars just finger tight.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring vinegar and brown sugar to a boil. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until chutney reaches desired consistency., Carefully ladle hot mixture into hot pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles, wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner.
