Ingredients

12 oranges

Kosher salt, to coat

1/2 cup of salt

1 cup of sugar

1 1/2 cups of white wine vinegar

1/2 quart of orange juice

1 cup of dates

1/2 tablespoon mustard seed, whole

1 1/2 dried red chilis, whole

1 tablespoon mustard oil

1 tablespoon cumin

1/2 tablespoon aleppo pepper

1 1/2 tablespoons ginger, chopped

1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, chopped

Directions

  1. Quarter the oranges and sprinkle with kosher salt and cure for 24 hours. Rinse off gently, taking care not to squeeze any juice from the oranges. Place in a pot and cover with boiling water, 2 inches above oranges. Add one half cup of salt. Bring to a boil. If water tastes too salty, discard some and add fresh water. Add sugar, vinegar, orange juice, dates and whole spices and allow to simmer. In a separate pan, heat mustard oil over low flame. Add the cumin and aleppo pepper. Cook until fragrant. Add the ginger and garlic and sweat. Combine with orange mixture and simmer until a chutney consistency is achieved.

Well!  ll I have is a lot of orange quarters floating around in a vinegary liquid.  When do I skin the oranges, or cut them up to make it all look like chutney?  I come from the land of chutney, and even though I have never made it before, I know what it should look and taste like.
