Notes

How to tell if chutney when chutney is ready;
Your chutney is ready when you can drag your wooden spoon along the bottom of the pan and it leaves a clear trail before filling in again.
How long does this keep?
Your pear chutney will keep for up to a year in a cool cupboard, once opened store it in the fridge and use within a month.
How much does this make?
I got 2 x 350g jars of spiced pear chutney from this recipe.
