Stir and continue simmering, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes more. Remove from heat; discard onion and ginger for smoother consistency. Stir in white wine vinegar.
Let chutney cool at least 2 hours at room temperature then transfer into a sterilized jar or container. Seal by canning in boiling water bath, and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks until ready to serve.

Cook’s Note
Use tart cooking apples like Granny Smith, Gala, or Pink Lady.
For a jam-like consistency, use apples like Fuji, Macintosh or Cortland; these break down easily during cooking, creating a thicker chutney.
Editor’s Note:
This recipe was tested in our test kitchen and updated to include golden raisins and reduce the amount of vinegar. The original recipe had 1 cup of vinegar.
