Cooks' Question

I've made some chutney, but how will I know when it's ready to eat?

Response

A chutney is ready when the vinegar has reduced sufficiently. You can tell this by running the edge of a wooden spoon right across the surface of the chutney – if the spoon leaves a channel imprinted for a few seconds, without it filling with vinegar, then the chutney is ready.
