Tangy Plum Sauce for Canning image

Use this tart and sweet sauce right out of the jar for dipping. Or use as a sort of stir-fry or poaching sauce, adding other ingredients like fresh ginger and hot chili flakes. Makes a small batch but easily doubled. From Topp and Howard's "Put a Lid on it".

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 half pints, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 3/4 lbs plums, washed and pitted, finely chopped (about 1 3/4 cups)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
1 cup cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups onions, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup raisins, washed (I like to use golden raisins)
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 pinch ground cloves
1 pinch cinnamon
1 pinch ground ginger
1 pinch ground allspice

Steps:

  • Use food processor for chopping plums and onions separately, if you have one.
  • Place plums, sugar, vinegar and salt in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring now and then.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 40-45 minutes, or until thickened. Stir occasionally.
  • Ladle into hot sterilized jars to within 1/2 inch of the top of the jar. Wipe jar edges with clean cloth and seal with heated lids.
  • Process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes.
