LYNCHBURG BARBECUE SAUCE (LOW SODIUM)



Lynchburg Barbecue Sauce (Low Sodium) image

A very low sodium barbecue sauce that's not too sweet (which I prefer) from Dick Logue's newsletter of low sodium recipes, which I subscribe to. If you add it too early and it cooks longer than about 1/2 hour it blackens and gets crisp.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your sauce will be.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky, caramelized taste.
  • Use a variety of peppers: Different peppers add different levels of heat and flavor to the sauce. For a milder sauce, use green peppers. For a spicier sauce, use red or cayenne peppers.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: A little bit of sugar or honey can help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes and add a touch of sweetness.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the sauce as you're making it and adjust the seasonings accordingly.
  • Let the sauce simmer: Simmering the sauce for a while allows the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
