  • 4 medium Granny Smith apples (peeled and diced)
  • 2 1/2 cups brown sugar (firmly packed)
  • 2 cups apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups raisins (may use half golden raisins or dried cranberries)
  • 3/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups seedless green grapes (halved)
  • 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard

Instructions

  1. Combine the green tomato wedges, diced apples, brown sugar, vinegar, raisins, onions, and salt in a large nonreactive stockpot or Dutch oven; stir well. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Add the grapes and seasonings; stir well.
  2. Continue cooking, uncovered, over medium-low heat for 1 hour, or until mixture is thickened.
  3. Meanwhile, wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water. Put the jars put them in a large water bath canner. Fill the pot with water and bring to a simmer to keep them warm
  4. Put the lids in a saucepan of water; bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat.
  5. Spoon the chutney into the hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch head space; wipe jar rims and threads.
  6. Cover at once with the lids. Screw the bands on firmly but do not overtighten.
  7. Put the jars in a rack and lower them into the canner. The water should be at least 1 inch above the jars; add more hot water, if necessary.
