The only chutney I've had was Major Gray's (mango, I think) and I
thought it was pretty sweet.

Mine are fairly solid, same as a butter or even fruit cheese, with
chunks of fruits and raisins.

Local Pakistani place called Naan and Chutney has a set of chutneys on
the table. They run the gamut from runny liquid (the
coriander/cilantro), syrup (tamarind), to what Pastorio's describing for
the mango. I have in my fridge a commercial "lime chutney" I got from a
local Indian grocery and it's chunky/solid. Also horribly bitter and
terribly hot but that's beside the point.

> Are the Naan and Chutney chutneys fresh or preserved? Ellen


The coriander/cilantro probably is. The tamarind isn't chunky at all,
like a syrup so it's probably fresh from a paste. Sigh. You know what
I mean. I don't know about the mango, but it's definitely not Major Grey's.

I'm saying they're all chutneys and all different textures and
consistencies. I'd like to know so I can either continue what I've been
doing or stop doing it.
