Description

This delicious duck sauce is easy to make at home with plums, apricot preserves, apple juice, and savory seasonings for dipping Chinese egg rolls and wontons.

Ingredients

• 5 cups coarsely chopped mixed fruit (apples, plums, and pears)

• 1 cup water

• 3/4 cup apple juice

• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

• 1 tablespoon apricot preserves

• 1 teaspoon soy sauce

• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

Directions

1 Gather the ingredients.

2 Place plums in a stockpot over medium-high heat. Stir in 1 cup water, apple juice, brown sugar, apricot preserves, soy sauce, garlic powder, and dry mustard.

3 Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently to dissolve brown sugar. Reduce the heat and continue simmering until fruit is completely soft, about 40 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool for 30 minutes.

4 Transfer cooled mixture to a food processor or blender. Blend until completely smooth, adjusting the consistency with additional water if desired.

5 Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
