What to know about chutney
Chutney is a whole family of sweet-sour relishes, and almost every version stacks the same triggers: fruit and added sugar push it high on FODMAPs and moderately high on excess fructose, while the onion and garlic that flavour most savoury chutneys add fructans. The vinegar and slow cooking bring moderate histamine, sulfites and free glutamate, and many recipes add a pinch of chilli or tomato for a moderate nightshade note. It is pro-inflammatory and firmly off a low-FODMAP or DASH plan, so a small spoonful next to a curry or cheese board can hit several sensitivities at once.
Watch for
- High in FODMAPs and moderately high in excess fructose from the fruit and sugar base, a frequent cause of bloating after an Indian meal or a ploughman's plate
- Onion and garlic in most savoury chutneys add fructans, a second FODMAP that hits IBS sufferers hard
- Vinegar and long cooking raise moderate histamine, sulfites and glutamate, so reactions can be hard to pin on a single ingredient
- Often a moderate nightshade and salicylate load too, from the chilli, tomato and warm spices many recipes lean on
