Add all ingredients to a food processor or a high-speed blender. Blend well. You may need to add a small amount of water to get the blades moving.

Place in the Probiotic Jar, insert the Brine Bowl, seal, add airlock and water.

Ferment at room temperature (if below 74°F) for 5 to 14 hours with the airlock. Ferment away from direct light. If warmer than 74°F, then ferment in fridge with airlock for 24 hours. Transfer to fridge.
Recipe Notes
If you are following a low carbohydrate or sugar diet, then omit the maple syrup. It will still taste great without it. If you like your chutneys on the sweeter side, then add it!
