Going back to an earlier post of mine, yesterday was "chutney making day" , I had just over 4 Lbs of green and under-ripe tommies, a mix of cherry and normal sized...

40 minutes of chopping later.

Then adjusted the recipe quantities to suit the 4lb of tomatoes, into the large stockpot... If you had never made chutney before then you would think there was no where near enough vinegar in there, trust me, don't add more.

As it turned out, I had just enough ingredients for 9 1/2 lb jars, by a happy coincidence although I have over 20 jars I only had 9 new lids in stock.

I didn't know that was in chutney. (I don't google everything)

Whats the black "seed" things?

wine~o · Post by **wine~o** » Tue Oct 06, 2020 5:31 pm

Someone-Else, The black seeds are fruit flies...

Only kidding

1 tablespoon of black onion seeds * (sometimes called nigella or kalonji seeds

Thought I had posted the recipe in this thread, turns out it was cookery corner. Search "Chutney" in the dedicated search on the forum if you are interested.

If i was to hazard a guess, ^^^ what he said , the brown things are raisins - i would say that is destined to be cooked

Pinball machine is no more, due to the lack of space among other things. But i will be making a controller with the buttons once my shoulder settles down
