1/2 cup+ date syrup or dark maple syrup

1/4 tsp flakey sea salt - I love SALTERY's Duxbury Salt!

1 tbsp orange zest

1 tbsp orange juice


METHOD


Combine all ingredients (except for honey) in a sauce pot, cover and heat over medium heat for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until fruit is soft enough to easily mash. (If the liquid cooks off before the fruit has softened, just add a bit of water 1 tbsp at a time in order to maintain moisture. If you have a lot of excess liquid, simply pour some off before adding the honey)


Add honey to taste and cooking with the lid off, stirring often, until most of the liquid has been cooked off and a thick, chunky chutney has formed.
