Yield 7 pints

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 colanders (about 1 gallon) Italian prune plums, pitted and cut in half
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
1 sweet onion, finely chopped
6 cloves garlic, pressed
1 jalapeno, finely chopped
1 pizza pepper, finely chopped
1 ancho chile, finely chopped
1 Hungarian stuffing pepper, finely chopped
2 cups apple cider vinegar
5 cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon iodized sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
2 teaspoons mustard powder
1 teaspoon mustard seed
3 tablespoons smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

Steps:

  • Cook plums with about 2 cups water until completely soft and collapsing. Run through a food mill to remove some of the skins and puree the fruit. Heat the oil in a very large non-reactive pot, and saute onion and pepper until onion is beginning to be translucent. Add garlic and saute until onion is completely cooked. Add the rest of the ingredients, except the xanthan gum, stirring thoroughly after each addition. Bring mixture almost to a boil, lower heat and simmer, stirring often, until mixture coats a spoon with a thick layer. Add xanthan gum (optional) and stir thoroughly. Fill jars and process 15-20 minutes depending on size of jars and your elevation.
