thanks squig
for some reason diced peel came into my head, gak.
Sultanas it'll be :0

Well, I believe that chopped dates, or apricots can also be nice... guess prunes (dried plums) might be good too.

How many people made chutney I wonder?
I call for a tasting, best picked apple jar wins them all!
Saying this , not made it yet

Is cider hard to make?

 

[Squiggle]

No, very easy.

Apple juice and yeast

Put it in a demijohn (by the method my mum is using) with some cling film over it... it foams over for a while... when it stops foaming over fit an airlock... when it stops fermenting (the water levels in the airlock will be even and it won't bubble any more) bottle.

how do you sterilize jars?

 

[Squiggle]

one of the easiest ways is to put them on a tray (open end up) and put them in the oven at about 130 degrees for about 20 minutes - you need them to be hot/warm before you fill them with jam/chutney or whatever anyway.

Edit: after you've washed and dried them first of course.
