In this week's episode, Patrick and Stuart need to deal with their giant fig tree in the small chateau courtyard, which suddenly has fruit that is ripe. Along with the remaining amazing harvest of peaches, they create a delicious fig-peach chutney. Patrick and Stuart also make a trip to go shopping at a local brocante in the French town of Dun-sur-Auron.
Fig-Peach Chutney ingredients:
ripe figs and peaches
raisins
dried cranberries
apples
onions
sugar
balsamic vinegar (aceto balsamico)
apple cider vinegar
red wine vinegar
cinnamon
candied ginger
ground ginger
pepper
ground spices: cloves and coriander
Join Patrick and Stuart on their journey to find a neglected, forgotten, or crumbling château or castle in France, and then continue to follow them as they work on its restoration, rénovation, decoration, and furnishing. Along the way, they will also create and share videos on their preparation for having gîtes for guests, and an event venue in their chateau (wedding, birthday, anniversary, organization or club meetings, retreats, etc.).

Good morning Patrick & Stuart, it is good for us to be 'busy'. Glad to see you keep your priorities up, it's like doing laundry today when you know tomorrow it is going to rain, then whilst it is raining and if possible, you do the ironing! Life is logical, just work it out. Presently the conserves are most important. So glad to hear Donna is coming back, she is just like a fire cracker, when she goes off, sparks are flying everywhere :). Some Brocantes are lovely, and others just have rubbish. Selection would be the order of the day. Enjoy the preserving, you will feel so good when you eat that. Some days I feel like the Mad Hatter, so busy looking at the clock instead of doing the work that is waiting, it is ridiculous!! Have you thought about drying some fruit, that would also be a good way to preserve them, just make sure they are good quality, place in the sun on a drying rack and there you go. Figs are wonderful dried. Happy days, take care, kind regards, Elize

My prayers for both of them. I hope there will be good news or at least treatment to help them. I, too, have an enlarged heart, so I really can sympathize. Welcome back to Donna, and welcome to her son. I know she will work magic on the chapel. It was lovely seeing you all on Jane's channel and Terry and Ash's channel. I am feeling much better than I was, knock on wood. Thank you for your lovely messages, they really do brighten my days. Much love to you both and the fur babies. ❤

Hello to Darling Stuart and Patrick, your vlog once again has brightened up my evening as I have contracted Lyme’s disease from my recent vacation . I love watching you make all these beautiful chutneys and like myself it’s all in the preparation of the ingredients. I’m also glad to see how you always clean as you go as I can’t understand how some people just have stuff everywhere . A good cook always cleans as they go. I do hope that the test results won’t take too long as it’s the not knowing is the hardest part. Looking forward to Donna’s visit. Xx😚🇨🇮

You can freeze the fruit or tomatoes in batches till you have the time. Or if you don't quite have enough and it might go off, freeze what you have and add the new stuff till you do. On days when I'm busy I put a batch of chutney or the fruit for jam in the slow cooker for the day. Next day or several days later I transfer the fruit to my jam pan, heat it up add the sugar and cook as usual. The same with the chutney, just finish it up a few days later when you have time.

Love seeing you your the various brocante’s. I’m sure you’re much happier living in France than in the US.

The chutney looks delicious! One of my favorite ways to eat figs is grilled. Slice the fig lengthwise, place the flesh side down over the open flame for a very brief period. Doing so will caramelize the sugars. Then place on a dessert plate with a dollop od mascarpone cheese on the grilled flesh. C'est bonne! 😋

Thank you for putting up the recipe, I'll definitely be making that in autumn when my figs ripen. I hope you make some Fig jam, as well as Peach jam, they're both so yummy. I've just made another batch of Lemon honey, there's a glut of all the citrus here this year, and I've been given so many, as well as apples, and kiwifruit! I chop it all roughly and pop it in the freezer until I have time and energy to process it all.

Not sure if somebody has mentioned this before, but did you know that you can prep the fruit and freeze. Then, when you are ready (late fall/early winter) you can make your chutney/jams. Many people I know have done this for years and it turns out quite well. I've done it myself with apples (apple butter), blueberries and strawberries, etc. Hope your fur babies are ok. I have a 13.5 year old boy and it's hard some days.

Such a lovely and enjoyable video. Thank you. You were both a joy to listen to and watch. Now I am going to chop-chop-chop the harvest of figs, add some peaches, raisins and spices and hope for the best! Bon appetite.

Oh wow, I bet your upcoming holidays never looked so good! If only we could spread everything out over the year, instead of “having to put out fires” ( such as cooking the jams and chutneys NOW)! You will look back fondly , hopefully, when we are in the middle of deep winter and it is all behind you and you’re eating the “fruits” of your labor in front of a large, roaring fire! I hope the fur babies are ok… it’s always worrying when they aren’t feeling well. May they get better soon.

sending prayers for Colin and Ginger. Please keep us posted. Harvest is such a lovely time at the chateau and everything you made looks delicious! With all the figs, have you considered making a fig liqueur? The Italians call it Ficonello and it's marvelous. Hugs!!
