Equipment

There are certain items of equipment which will help to make your preserving easier but they are not essential.

A heavy gauge aluminiumpreservingpan will last a lifetime and has the advantage of being wide and open at the top (so the vinegar can reduce more effectively). However a large thickbased saucepan without the lid of course can quite safely be used instead.

Likewise preserving jars which seal down with their own lids are useful but not vital: any sized jar filled to the top will do. But a couple of words of warning: vinegar corrodes metal so make sure your lids are plasticlined when bottling pickles and chutney. Paper or cellophane covers are fine for jams and marmalade but not for pickles: they are not completely airtight and the vinegar will inevitably evapourate during long storage and the chutney will shrink.

Ordinary gauze (from the chemist) is perfectly adequate for holding the spices to suspend in the chutney and waxed paper discs for sealing can be bought from most stationers. In an emergency you can cut your own from the waxed paper found in breakfast cereal packets.

Testing

Your chutney is ready when the vinegar has reduced sufficiently. You can test this by running a wooden spoon across the surface of the chutney to make a channel in it: if this channel remains imprinted for a few seconds without being filled with vinegar then the chutney is ready.

When testing for a set with jam or marmalade a cooking thermometer clipped to the side of the pan can be some guide (though I confess the steam doesnt make reading it any easier). Setting point should be reached when the mixture reaches 220
