About Shaws Caramelised Red Onion Chutney With Balsamic
The cheese board looks finished. Then somebody opens the onion chutney, and suddenly it is not.
Shaws Caramelised Red Onion Chutney With Balsamic is the dark, sticky, sweet-sharp jar that turns a lump of Cheddar and a cracker into supper. It does the same for a pork pie, a cold sausage, or the last of the roast in a sandwich.
If you grew up with a jar of this in the fridge door, you already know a ploughman's never quite works without it.
One spoonful goes on the plate. The second goes on when nobody is looking.
Frequently asked questions about Shaws Caramelised Red Onion Chutney With Balsamic
Q: Is this the UK version?
A: It is. This is the British jar, made in the United Kingdom, and we ship it from within Canada.

A: It is a 195g jar. That covers several cheese boards, or one very determined afternoon with a block of Cheddar.

Q: Is it a good thing to send to someone who misses Britain?
A: Yes. Pair it with a good piece of cheese and some crackers and you have sent them a pub lunch by post.
More about Shaws Caramelised Red Onion Chutney With Balsamic
Chutney sits at the heart of the British lunch that nobody bothers to cook: bread, cheese, something cold and a dollop of something sticky on the side. Red onion chutney is the one that turns up in pubs, delis and sandwich shops right across the country, usually next to a wedge of something strong.
In Canada, people go looking for it because the cheese is easy to find and the habit is not. You can buy the crackers and the Cheddar, but the plate still feels half done until that particular sweet, tangy jar is sitting on the board.
This is a 195g jar, which is enough for a good few cheese boards and a run of sandwiches, depending on how heavy your hand is. It sits quietly in the cupboard until you need it. Spread it thick in a cheese toastie, spoon it beside a pie, or stir a little into gravy when nobody is watching.
It goes with the rest of a proper British spread: a strong Cheddar, oatcakes or water biscuits, pork pies, sausage rolls and a stack of thick-cut ham. Put it out with those and the table more or less sorts itself.
