Apple, mango, raisins and
molasses add the sweet notes to mustard's vinegary spiciness.
This condiment would go well with cooked sausages or on baked
ham or turkey sandwiches.
Creole
Chutney Mustard
- 1 cup water
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 cup diced peeled apple
2 cups brown mustard
1 cup diced peeled mango, (see Tip below)
2 tablespoons molasses
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- In a heavy saucepan over
medium-high heat, bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium
and add raisins and apple; blanch for 2 minutes. Drain, then
place in a bowl and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled. Add
brown mustard, mango, molasses and cinnamon, stirring until well
mixed. Serve chilled.
Makes about 32 servings.
Tip: To Peel a Mango: Stand
the mango on end and slice down along the sides of the large
flat pit with a boning knife or other long, flexible knife, curving
around the pit as you slice. You will end up with three sections:
two larger, rounded sections and a flat center section. Score
the fruit in each rounded section lengthwise into slices, then
crosswise into chunks, if desired. Holding a rounded section
by its edges, push at the curved bottom to turn the rind inside
out. The slices or chunks can then be cut away from the rind.
Trim away rind from the flat center section and separate as much
fruit as possible from the pit. Always cut away from yourself
and be careful - mango is very slippery.
