Health benefits of Tangerine Chutney

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.

Ingredients

9 small seedless tangerines, unpeeled
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups red jalapeño pepper jelly
3/4 cup tangerine, orange, or lemon marmalade

Instructions

Finely grate enough peel off tangerines to measure 3 tablespoons. Using small sharp knife, cut all peel and white pith off tangerines. Working over large sieve set in bowl, cut between membranes, releasing segments into sieve. Place in refrigerator and let segments drain at least 2 hours and up to 6 hours.
Stir vinegar, mustard, and salt in medium bowl until mustard dissolves. Mix in jelly, marmalade, and 3 tablespoons grated tangerine peel. Cover and chill chutney base up to 6 hours.
Gently fold tangerine segments into chutney base and serve.
