I am a huge chutney fan and decided that it was time I learned to make my own! Not knowing where to start I decided a couple of books would be a good investment.
This is a great book for a novice!
The book starts with an introduction section to jars, sterilizing, basic techniques, fruit/veg/spices. The section is easy to read, informative and not too advanced or condescending to most readers. It is also not too long that people who have been making pickles and chutneys for years won't feel they have lost valuable recipe space. Plus there are a few extra recipes snuck in here too!
The main section of the book is split into sections on pickles, chutneys, relishes etc and the recipes are simply explained and easy to follow.
I have become a mad chutney maker as a result of the book reading up on what to make next!
This is a must for all chutney fans!

Although my wife is an excellent cook and I'm no mean shakes myself when she lets me loose, neither of us have done much by way of making our own pickles. We bought this book as we thought it would provide a good introduction to the various techniques and so it has proved. There is a generous amount of information to get you started, which is easy to follow and well illustrated. The recipe section contains a sufficiently broad cross-section to cater for just about everyone's tastes, and again, although we've yet to try many of them, the instructions look pretty clear and straightforward. It's just what we were looking for but, if you're already an accomplished pickler, it may be a tad basic for you.

Most general cook books have the odd one or two chutney recipes, but it is nice to have a book dedicated to the subject. The instructions are concise but detailed enough to give all the information that a beginner needs to get going and at the same time provides good recipes for an experienced pickler (chutneyer?) to make something different. My partner loved the piccalilli which I made from the recipe supplied. My only regret being that I didn't make enough as she is putting it in her lunchtime sandwiches and I am not getting much of a look in. OK, so next year I'll make more. I grew a lot of peppers this year and it was great to find a way of dealing with the glut.
A good little book. Buy it, use it, store and enjoy the results all year.
