Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds plums, pitted and chopped
1/2 cup diced Garnet yam (i.e., orange flesh)
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon sea salt
For the Spice Mixture (highly recommended but see below for shortcut option):
1 2-3 inch piece cinnamon stick
2 whole star anise
4 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon sichuan peppercorns ((NOT the same thing as black pepper))
1/4 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
OR 1 teaspoon Chinese Five Spice Powder

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients except for the spice mixture in a medium-sized pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender to puree until smooth (then return to pot).
  • Place the whole spices (skip if using store-bought five spice powder) in a small dry pan and toast over medium-high heat just until fragrant. Be careful not to scorch the spices or they will taste bitter. Let the spices cool and then place the whole spices in a piece of cheesecloth tied shut with string or in a tea sachet. Do the same if using store-bought ground five spice powder.
  • Place the spice packet in the pot with the plum sauce and continue to simmer uncovered for 25-45 minutes until the sauce is thickened to the desired consistency. Discard the spice packet. Let the sauce cool. Store in the fridge in an airtight non-reactive container. Will keep for up to 2 weeks.
  • CANNING INSTRUCTIONS: Ladle the hot plum sauce into sterilized jars, seal with the lids and process in a boiling water canner for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Remove the jars and let sit undisturbed for 24 hours then check the seals. Will keep in a dark, cool place for at least a year.

CHINESE PLUM SAUCE



Chinese Plum Sauce image

The condiment sū méi jiàng is typically made with plums, vinegar, sugar and some spices. Our version of plum sauce has the perfect balance of sweetness, brightness and light spice. It's traditionally used as a dipping sauce for fried foods like spring rolls, egg rolls and fried wontons, and for basting duck, chicken and pork. But there's no need to stop there. Try it tossed with noodles or a stir-fry, or mixed into a salad dressing for a twist.

Time 2h35m

Yield 1 3/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fresh plums, preferably red plums for color, pitted and chopped (about 4 cups)
2 sticks brown slab sugar or 1/2 cup light brown sugar (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
2 coins ginger, about 1/2 inch thick
1 dried chile pepper, such as chile de árbol or dried Thai chile, optional
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Place the plums, sugar, apple cider vinegar, unseasoned rice vinegar, soy sauce, Chinese five-spice powder, ginger coins, chile and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and simmer until the plums are soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a blender, filling halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender until smooth.
  • Transfer the blended plum mixture back to the same pot and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and you can see the bottom of the pot when you run a rubber spatula across the bottom, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a medium bowl or plate to cool to room temperature, about 2 hours.
  • The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

  • Add other fruits: You can also add other fruits to your plum sauce, such as peaches, apricots, or nectarines. This will give the sauce a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Use fresh ginger and garlic: Fresh ginger and garlic will give your sauce the best flavor. If you don't have fresh ginger or garlic, you can use ground ginger and garlic powder, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Use a good quality soy sauce: The soy sauce you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your sauce. Choose a good quality soy sauce that is not too salty or too sweet.
  • Can the sauce in jars: Canning is a great way to preserve your plum sauce so that you can enjoy it all year round. Be sure to follow the canning instructions carefully to ensure that the sauce is properly sealed and safe to eat.
