Chutneys differ from other preserves in that they can be eaten soon after making them, if you like. But they can also be stored for long periods as long as they are bottled in sterilized containers.

Perfect Chutney
1.When you make chutney for use immediately, always make extra for the store-cupboard.
2.The flavour of chutney improves with keeping.
3.Use jars with plastic or coated-metal lids; vinegar corrodes metal so chutneys must be covered with airtight, vinegar-proof lids. Vinegar will also evaporate through jam pot discs and cover.
