It's that time of the year when vegetable and fruit produce is in abundance.
My dilemma is always what to do with it.
Yesterday it was cucumbers and zucchini.
A family favourite is pickles and I always use a recipe from my sister-in-law Jenny.
So I now have 12 bottles of pickles sitting in the pantry.
Today it was plums, not sure of the variety but they are not blood plums which are my favourite.
I decided to make a plum chutney.
It is a delicious combination of plums, ginger, mustard seeds and chilli along with the normal chutney ingredients.
After lots of chopping and simmering I have made this:
8 jars of plum chutney.
The down side of all this productivity in the kitchen is:
A sink full of dirty dishes.
The day has been cool and cloudy, a lovely day to spend in the kitchen.
Lots more plums to come from the orchard....mmmm - what recipe to do next.
