Apple and onion chutney

This classic of Indian cuisine made its way to Europe during the colonial era thanks to the English. Here, it was mainly vegetable and fruit chutneys that became popular. This aromatic apple and onion chutney made from apples, onions, white wine, fine apple cider vinegar and whole cane sugar tastes particularly good with a snack, but also with strong cheese and various meat dishes. You can eat it immediately after preparation or fill it into sterilized preserving jars. It will keep for several months.

    It doesn't take much to turn a cheese platter into a culinary highlight. Arrange five to nine cheeses of different textures on a board, preferably in bite-sized pieces. Creamy cheeses such as mature Brie or Camembert stay in one piece and lie on the outside - this makes it easier to handle cheese knives. Serve cream cheese, olives, pickles, mustard and dips in small bowls and on small plates. Crackers and bread potato chips, almonds, nuts, pistachios and pumpkin seeds as well as seasonal fruit can be used as "gap fillers" to create an inviting overall look for your grazing platter.
