Major Grey's Chutney
Major Grey's Chutney is a type of chutney, reputedly created by a 19th-century British Army officer of the same name who, though likely apocryphal, presumably lived in British India. Its characteristic ingredients are mango, raisins, vinegar, lime juice, onion, tamarind extract (occasionally), sweetening, and spices.
It has been described as a mild chutney compared to others that have a spicier flavor profile. In 1982, Major Grey's Chutney was described as being the most popular type of chutney used in the United States.
Commercial Major Grey's Chutney products typically contain similar ingredients, with some variations occurring in the formulations of the various products.
Major Grey's Mango Chutney is manufactured by Sun Brand in India and by Desai Brothers Ltd. in Pune, India under the brand name Mother's Recipe, and has been exported to Singapore.
In the UK, a number of manufacturers mass-produce a "Major Grey's Mango Chutney", for example, Patak's and Butterworth & Son. One of the oldest brands, reputedly the first manufacturer to popularise the chutney in the West, is Crosse & Blackwell, now partly owned by the J.M. Smucker Company. It has been suggested that Crosse & Blackwell purchased the formulation for Major Grey's Chutney, "probably in the early 1800s".
