Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds fresh plums pitted and chopped (peel left on)
  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Place 1.5 pounds fresh plums, 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger, and 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 25 minutes or until the plums are soft and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Remove from heat and pour the sauce into a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth and return to pot. (Alternately, you can use an immersion blender right in the pot. Be careful blending hot liquids!).
  • Bring the plum sauce back to a boil, then ladle into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  • Place sterilized lids and rings on the jars and process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath.
  • Remove jars to a towel to rest for 24 hours. Check seals before storing.
