processing complete

Once your Zesty Sweet TomatoApple Chutney has completed processing, space the jars about an inch apart on a cloth on the counter for 24 hours to cool and completely seal.


If your jar did not seal, then place it in the fridge and use it immediately. Store the sealed jars in your pantry to enjoy for the next 1-3 years. After three years the nutritional value of canned food diminishes. The quality is best in the first year.
