Preserve chutney by storing it in the freezer.

Chutney, which derives from traditional East Indian cuisine, is a relish condiment that contains different herbs, flavorings, fruits and vegetables. You can preserve the chutney by canning it or storing it in the freezer. Freezing the chutney does not require as much preparation as canning, and it will last for up to 12 months in the freezer.
