Plum Sauce image

We have a Satsuma plum tree in our backyard that produces loads of plums every year. I'm always trying to come up with new ways to preserve plums. Because I used very purple-red plums, the color of this plum sauce is not what most people are used to when they open a jar of commercial plum sauce. But, I think this one is very yummy!

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 C

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lbs plums, cleaned, pitted, and cut in half
1 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup ginger, grated or 1/4 cup ginger, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 cups water
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup rice vinegar or 1/3 cup cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon coriander, ground

Steps:

  • Add plums, onions, ginger, garlic and water in a large saucepan and heat until it comes to full boil. Turn down heat to low and cook for additional 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • With a food mill press through or blend using a blender in batches.
  • If you like your sauce very smooth without the added fiber from the plums, run it through a sieve after using food mill or blender. This is the method I prefer and makes for smoother sauce.
  • Clean the saucepan and return the sauce to the pan.
  • Add sugar, vinegar, coriander and salt. Bring to boil and reduce to barely simmer and cook for additional (about) 1 hour.
  • Fill the sterilized jars and process in boiling water bath for 15 minutes.
