Tips & Tricks

Castello Aged Havarti is a cheese with some self-confidence, which goes well with many foods. Its strong taste also means that you can prepare strongly-flavoured accompaniments - like this Apricot-Chili Chutney - without drowning out the cheese.

Tips & Tricks

The red chili in the chutney is relatively mild. Cook it in one piece together with the apricots, and remove it once the chutney has the right bite.

Tips & Tricks

The chutney keeps for a long time in the fridge, so make a large batch while you are at it. The chutney also goes well with a curry dish or cold meats.
