Mango Chutney

Mango Chutney is the product prepared from washed, clean, sound mango fruits (Mangifera indica L.) which have been peeled and are sliced, chopped, shredded or comminuted, then heat processed with basic ingredients before or after being sealed in containers so as toprevent spoilage.

Chutney is a term applied to a variety of spicy relishes and condiments in Indian cookery. The term itself is an anglicized form of the Hindi word chatni. Sourness, pungency and salt are important aspects of chutney that have major impact on the sensory scores.

Basic Ingredients for mango chutney are nutritive sweeteners, honey, other fruits and vegetables, salt (sodium chloride), spices and condiments (such as vinegar, onion, garlic and ginger) and other suitable food ingredients.

Mango chutney is a delicious accompaniment to any meal. Although traditionally served with papad and other Indian cuisine, the flavor of mango chutney compliments any cheese or cold meat dish perfectly. Homemade mango chutney is much more cost-effective and tasty than a factory-manufactured equivalent, and it only takes an hour to make a three-pound batch.
