Strawberry rhubarb chutney: seasonally perfect with chicken in early summer but, if you freeze enough berries and rhubarb, a delightful treat for your Thanksgiving turkey, too.
Rhubarb season is officially here! This means I’ll be making strawberry rhubarb pie, rhubarb crumble, and a big batch of my new favorite recipe, rhubarb chutney.
With an abundance of rhubarb harvested, it was time to start canning this season. Making chutney is something I have not tried before and now I wonder why I waited so long? Tart, sweet, and spicy--it is so delicious.
This chutney works with nearly everything. We’ve been smearing it on crackers with soft and hard cheeses, topping salads and wafer thin pizza bases with it, and adding a little extra flavour to steamed greens.
