Little question... I want to make this chutney for the holidays, but one question is bothering me... What is the point of the tea? Can you really taste it? Isn't it too strong? -

Small question... I want to make this chutney for Christmas, but I have a small question... What is the purpose of the tea? Can you really taste it? Is it not too strong? I admit I'm intrigued, but I'm a bit afraid that the flavor is too pronounced... -

My version I added a hint of cinnamon and clove; I made much more tea (with cardamom) and added sugar. -

The balance between the figs and the other ingredients is not very harmonious. And the quantities for 6 are excessive. I have chutney not very good for an entire army. -

Sorry, but I really didn't like your chutney at all... Moreover, your instructions for the quantities of the ingredients are too vague: what does 1 sprig of basil exactly mean? 5 leaves, 7 leaves... 4 figs: medium, large??? Etc... I wasted 1.5 kg of beautiful figs...
