Only one more fruit is added to this vibrant red applesauce, yet its fragrance and tastiness seem to triple. Smooth and elegant, it complements roast meats and makes a wonderful dessert on its own. Ingredients:
2 lb gala or mcintosh apples, quartered and seeded (left unpeeled) |
2 lb red or black plums, quartered and pitted |
1/4 cup water |
1/4 cup sugar |
Directions:
1. Cook all ingredients in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is very tender and falling apart, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Force mixture through a large medium-mesh sieve using a rubber spatula, discarding peels.
2. Cooks' note: Plum applesauce keeps, covered and chilled, 1 week.
