Recipe Instructions

Prepare Ball brand or Kerr brand jars and closures according to manufacturer's instructions.

Combine all ingredients in a large saucepot. Cook slowly until thick, about 40 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.

Carefully ladle hot chutney into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe jar rim clean. Place lid on jar with sealing compound next to glass. Screw band down evenly and firmly just until a point of resistance is met -- fingertip tight.

Process 10 minutes in a boiling-water canner. At elevations higher than 1,000 feet, boil 2 additional minutes for each additional 1,000 feet elevation.

This recipe yields about 7 pints.

Caution: When cutting or seeding hot peppers, wear rubber gloves to prevent hands from being burned.
