Cranberry Chutney

love this no-cook recipe (and was skeptical at the beginning too). Used only 8 oz of sugar (as suggested by others) and was plenty sweet, with good consistency. Added a handful of toasted sliced almonds before serving (ala Craig Claiborne)

I threw in some dried figs (steeped in hot water for ~5 mins) for additional flavor. Delicious! Definitely dont need as much sugar as the recipe calls for. With the figs, I added only 1/2 cup of sugar and it was more than enough

So easy. Nice with 1/4 tsp each cinnamon and coriander. Zested 3 languishing cuties and used 1/4 peel of preserved orange peel from my tree. Great payoff for little effort.

Delicious. Followed others suggestions, and I reduced the sugar to 5 oz and it was delightfully tart. I added chopped walnuts for some crunch. Served it with slivers of orange rind on top and it was as beautiful as it was tasty.

Excellent and super easy. Took advice of others and used only 1/2 sugar called for which was perfect. Used an old t-shirt tied around mixer so as not to have flying cranberries and let it run for about an hour & half. Added a cinnamon stick and lumps of fresh ginger to chutney as it was marinating in fridge. It gets better as the flavors meld together; 3 days in fridge is about right. Excellent texture. Great chunky texture which lives up to chutney designation.

Fabulous! We had three cranberry sauces: one with figs; the regular, cooked Sam Sifton one; and this. This one bested them all! BUT - used a bit less than a cup of sugar, and did not macerate in mixer for an hour- maybe half that? Because the motor was getting warm! Anyway, I’m a convert.

half the sugar and make it a few days before. it’s delicious over vanilla ice cream.

Half the sugar, and it came out amazingly. Definitely will repeat and try cinnamon next time.

Made this with the full amount of sugar and added a bit of Grand Marnier, along with some cinnamon and ginger. It was delicious! Mine also came out soupy, with too much liquid (perhaps some super moist cranberries??), but I strained off the extra sugar water, and it was fine. Will definitely make again, perhaps with less sugar as others have suggested.

LOVE this. Agree with less sugar, making a day or two earlier with a cinnamon stick and adding pistachios and pomegranates before serving. It's a keeper!

All time favorite! 3/4 cup sugar is perfect balance of sweet tart for me. And after years of cranberries bouncing out of the bowl and all over my kitchen, finally just wrapped the entire thing in cling wrap - from the side of the mixing bowl, right over the top of the mixer, to the other side of the bowl, and let it go. Problem solved! Not sure why I didn’t heed this advice sooner ;)

A flop…ended up with raw-ish chopped cranberries and red sugar water. Tried to cook it afterwards to salvage it and it didn’t even cook properly because of the strange texture. Disappointing.

this is wonderful, but the recipe has 3-4 times more sugar than is necessary.

Used 1 cup of regular sugar with this

This is delicious. I’ve made it twice now and each batch needed a different amount of sugar. I start with 1/2 cup and add more to taste over a period of a few hours. At its best between 3-5 days.I followed someone else’s recommendation to put a cinnamon stick into one of the batches. That provides a lovely, subtle boost. I like to garnish it with a few chunks of supremed Cara-Cara segments.
