How to Make Spicy Rhubarb Chutney

  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine all Part 1 ingredients: 4 cups chopped rhubarb, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup water.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and add Part 2 ingredients: 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2-3 jalapeños, finely minced (remove seeds for less heat), 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.
  4. Return to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Cook for 60-90 minutes, or until the chutney has thickened considerably and coats the back of a spoon.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Ladle the hot chutney into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
  6. Process in a boiling water bath canner for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for precise instructions).
