Ingredients

  • 1/2 Red Onion
  • 1/4 cup Golden Raisins
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger grated
  • 1 Orange zested
  • 1/2 cup White Wine
  • 1/4 cup White Wine Vinegar
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 pound Rhubarb sliced
  • 2 stalks Celery chopped

Instructions

  • Chop the celery and rhubarb stalks coarsely. Just cutting "coins" off the stalks will do, you don't need to chop those slices down further.
  • Place in saucepan: raisins, ginger, orange zest, wine, vinegar, and sugar. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer. When simmering, add celery. Cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to give you a gentle simmer for about 10 minutes, until the sauce is thickened and the celery is tender. Add the rhubarb, and simmer for another 5 minutes, until the rhubarb is tender but not falling apart. The liquid should be completely reduced by now, simmer a little longer if need be but mind the rhubarb doesn't fall apart -- this is a chutney, not a stewed sauce.
  • When done, let cool and then chill it. Will keep refrigerated in airtight container for several days.

Notes

The ginger should be fresh ginger as it has a more citrusy taste than the dried ground. You can freeze the rest of the piece of the ginger in a small plastic baggie. In slicing, a "coin" is simply a cross-section slice of a stock. Use light or golden brown sugar. If you don't have white wine vinegar use whatever you have to hand.
