I define chowchow as pickled garden surplus - as in bits and bobs of
whatever there wasn't enough left of to can on its own.:-)  Peppers,
cauliflower, carrots, cucumbers, corn, and whatever else got too close
to the pot gets put up in a vinegar solution with a bunch of onions and
herbs.[some people don't add the onions]  Tastes pretty good.  I'm a
pickle lover myself, especially the kosher dills.  We don't do chutneys
much on this side of the ocean.
