What is Chutney, and how is it used? Chutney is a single word used to describe a variety of sauce-like condiments originally from the Indian subcontinent in Asia. These condiments range from savory, sweet, and spicy and are made with fruits, vegetables, or herbs. They can be used as dips, dressings, glazes, or marinades for meats. Chutneys are such substantial concentrations of flavors that they are best used to complement a dish.
