[...] we started with kimchi, which we both happen to love. I then moved on to fruit chutneys – cranberry-orange is my favorite so far, although I did a peach chutney last summer that was really, really good [...]

This is a wonderful recipe. We loved it Thanksgiving day, I gave it to teachers, and it’s now mandatory with my breakfast of yogurt and muesli! Starting my 2nd batch momentarily. Thank you.

Melissa, you can use whatever type sweetener you like; it will still be delicious. Evaporated cane juice is just my natural sweetener of choice.

Will it be ok to use some other than evaporated cane jopuice? I have brown rice syrup on hand and would prefer to use that since I have no other use for evaporate cane juice. Thanks!

Lila, you can use the spent lids; in fact, it would likely be preferable because you want the jar to be able to vent, at least a little, once the fermentation begins. I just used plastic lids for this.

Hi Jan,

When you say seal the jar tightly, do I need to make sure I use a new lid? Or is ok to use a lid that has already been used for canning and so the seal is spent?

Thanks,
Lila

The raisins are completely optional; they merely add a little sweetness to the chutney. Which, frankly, is probably plenty sweet without them. I’d be interested in hearing about how you pull off a completely Paleo Thanksgiving without letting your guests know.
