Ready in:	30 days

Cook time:	None
Difficulty:

I just love homemade dips, sauces and chutneys. They are usually pretty easy to make and ingredients list can be adjusted to suit your tastes.

I find that the flavour of the vinegar used affects the overall flavour quite drastically and like to test small amounts of different vinegars (and blends of) before I make the main batch.
