    Cherry Ketchup

    Recipe Introduction


    Cherry Ketchup

    List of Ingredients




    If you think that ketchup is made only from tomatoes, think again! Tart fruit can be simmered into delicious lightly spiced ketchup that makes a fine condiment for just about any poultry or meat.

    Makes 1 1/3 cups

    ACTIVE TIME: 10 minutes

    TOTAL TIME: 30 minutes

    EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy

    1 10-ounce package (2 cups) frozen pitted cherries (not in syrup)
    1/2 cup dried cherries
    1/2 cup cider vinegar
    1/3 cup water
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
    1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
    1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    Combine pitted cherries, dried cherries, vinegar, water, garlic, sugar, ginger, allspice, cardamom, cinnamon and cayenne in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel. Holding lid securely in place, blend until smooth. (Use caution when blending hot liquids.) Transfer the ketchup to a small bowl.
