I brought in 17# of green tomatoes before our frost, so I canned a simple green tomato chutney.
There are so many recipes, I just wanted to try a simple one first. It filled 6 half-pints (tripled recipe), so I hope it's tasty. This came from the book "Foolproof Preserving." It appears I could have thickened it just a bit more, but it was already sticking to the pan.
What was next?
I used 4 more pounds (double batch) to make our first green tomato salsa, which came with raving reviews. I canned a double batch, giving us 6 pints.
Green tomato salsa relish. I was given the tip that this recipe is delicious! No sugar either. As you can see, I had to use my last blue ball jars and some wide mouth jars. Jars are running low again.
The chutney will be tasted on pork chops or chicken, or even a cheese sandwich. The salsa can be eaten with chips, added to rice, quinoa, millet, green beans, peas, mixed into black beans, on burgers, topped on a breakfast burrito...endless ideas.
Oh, and it looks like "Christmas" so consider these for gifting.
