Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 ½ cups strawberry preserves
1 ¼ cups tomato puree
½ cup pomegranate-infused red wine vinegar (such as Pompeian®)
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
kosher salt to taste

Steps:

Combine strawberry preserves, tomato puree, vinegar, sugar, chili powder, red pepper flakes, cumin, cayenne, and black pepper in a medium pot. Whisk to remove any lumps.
Bring strawberry mixture to a slow simmer over medium-low heat. Cook until sauce evenly coats the back of a metal spoon and is glossy, about 30 minutes, whisking frequently; never allow the bottom of the pot to scorch. Season with kosher salt.
Remove sauce from heat and let cool before transferring to a tightly sealed quart-sized container.
