Over the years, I developed a range of chutneys using fruits garnered from neighbors’ and friends’ backyards. These chutneys were then presented as holiday gifts to family, friends and neighbors, which became a yearly tradition. Then, at the urging of friends and students I decided to make my chutneys more widely available.

My chutneys are made in small batches using fruits and vegetables at their peak, preserving the freshness of flavors with just the right balance of exotic spices, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar.  While some commercial chutneys have a smooth texture, mine are chock full of fruit, with a bite of fruit and a hint of spice in every spoonful.
