Apple Plum Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine jam, vinegar, brown sugar, dried onion, red pepper, garlic and ginger. Bring to a boil, stirring. Remove from heat.

Steps:

• Quarter the apples and plums, but leave their skins on; core the apples and remove the plum pits. Place the fruit in a 6-to-10-cup rice cooker. Add the apple juice, sugar, cinnamon sticks and butter. Cover and cook on the porridge cycle, or program for 50 minutes.
• Discard the cinnamon sticks. Stir and mash the fruit with a potato masher to make a chunky sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cook first 4 ingredients in a 4 -5 quart heavy pot, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is very tender and falling apart, 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
• Force mixture through a food mill using the finest blade.
• Add cinnamon and stir to incorporate.
• Will keep one week covered and chilled.
• Note: My cooked mixture created a LOT of liquid. I did not want a runny sauce, so before putting through the food mill, I put mixture in a sieve to separate out the liquid. AFTER using the food mill, I added just a bit of the liquid back until the sauce was a consistency I liked.

Steps:

• Cook all ingredients in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is very tender and falling apart, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Force mixture through a large medium-mesh sieve using a rubber spatula, discarding peels.
