I love jam and the cousins, jelly, butter and chutney.
Mom sent me a jar of her mango chutney and plum jam for Christmas. I finally decided it was time to crack open the chutney. She uses raisins and mango as the fruit. I browned some chicken thighs, spiced them up with masala and cayenne pepper, then poured in the chutney and some hot water to form a sauce. The mild acidity of the chutney with the smoky Indian spices worked perfectly. I was tempted to add coconut milk and glad I held off!
Sweetberry Farms is open again and I swear this will be the year that I make it out there before the strawberries are gone! Mom being here is a good motivator. I’d love to swap jam at an upcoming ATXswappers event if scheduling permits.
