Rhubarb Chutney

It's always fun to serve a meat or poultry dish with a twist. This tangy-sweet chutney is a wonderfully different garnish. With fine chunks of rhubarb and raisins, it has a nice consistency. It's among our favorite condiments. —Jan Paterson, Anchorage, Alaska

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 4 cups coarsely chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb, thawed
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/3 cup golden raisins
  • 1 teaspoon red food coloring, optional

Directions

  • In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, garlic, ginger, cumin, cinnamon, red pepper flakes and cloves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the rhubarb, onion and raisins. Cook and stir over medium heat until rhubarb is tender and mixture is slightly thickened, 5-10 minutes. Stir in food coloring if desired. Cool completely. Store in the refrigerator.
Editor's Note
If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.
