Can I ask, please, how long before this chutney is ready to eat, how long will it keep before opening and after opening?
Thanks

I'd keep it for at least 3 months before you use it as it allows the vinegary taste to go. As for keeping, at least 12 months but I've found it fine even after a couple of years.
