This persimmon chutney is a simple, versatile recipe that balances sweet and savory flavors. With just a few ingredients, you can create a vibrant condiment to complement meats, sandwiches, or even cheese plates.
Place all the ingredients, except the persimmon, in a large saucepan. Bring it to a boil, then let it cook for about 10 minutes.
Add the persimmon, mix, and cook for 30-35 minutes or until the chutney thickens. Let the chutney cool down completely before storing it in jars.
Notes
For a chunkier chutney, use Fuyu persimmons, which hold their shape better when cooked. If you prefer a smoother, more jam-like consistency, opt for fully ripe Hachiya persimmons.
Once cooled, store your persimmon chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month.
