Ingredients

1/2 cup diced dried dates
1/4 cup cumin powder
1/4 cup bourbon, optional
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons seasoned rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon chile flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Put the dates, cumin, bourbon if using, garlic, sugar, rice wine vinegar, chile flakes, salt, guajillo peppers and 2 cups water in a medium pot, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook until the dates are soft, another 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
