HOMEMADE SWEET CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• To prepare the tomatoes you need to remove the skin and chop or crush them. Fill a large pot 3/4 full and heat the water so it is almost boiling. Drop a bunch of tomatoes in the pot, about 10 at a time. Leave in the pot for about 5 minutes or so. Then transfer them to a sink filled with cold water. After the tomatoes are cool (5 minutes or so), take a knife and slit the skin. The tomato skin should peel off easily. Once, peeled, they can be chopped or crushed in a food grinder. Do this with all the tomatoes.
• In a pot large enough, add all the ingredients. Bring to a boil and low to a very low boil. Stir it regularly. Cook the sauce for about 4 hours. The sauce should reduce in size and thicken. Ensure that the sauce is not sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
• Pour the chili sauce in sterilized jars, seal and process them in a hot water bath for 15 minutes for 250ml jars, 20 minutes for 500ml jars and 30 minutes for 1 litre jars.

HOMEMADE CHILLI SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim the stalks of the chillies and deseed - slice each chilli down its length, open up the chilli and scrape out the seeds with a teaspoon. It's important that you wear gloves for this task! The build up of chilli juice on your hands from these quantities will make your hands burn for days - DAYS!
• Add all the ingredients except the sugar and salt to a high powered blender or food processor and blend until smooth. If your food processor isn't quite up to par, don't worry! You can sieve out any larger pieces after cooking.
• Add the chilli mixture, the sugar and salt to a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently, stirring fairly regularly to stop the bottom sticking and burning. The sauce is done when the mixture is reduced and thickened, about 20 minutes of simmering. You can decide now how thick you want your sauce to be - add a little extra water if you want to thin it, or simmer a little longer if you want it thicker. Taste the mixture - this is quite a hard one to sample as it's pretty spicy and your palate will become blown out after a few tastes, but someone's got to do it! I added a little extra salt (1/2 teaspoon) and vinegar (1 teaspoon) for my tastes, but yours will be different. You might want some extra sugar, but for me the chillies were pretty sweet themselves.
• Fill the bottle or jar you want to store your sauce in with boiling water and leave for 10 minutes. If you have used a high-powered blender, just decant the sauce into this clean bottle (a funnel is very useful here). If your blender wasn't quite able to purée the sauce and it still looks a little chunky, press it through a fine mesh sieve before bottling. Store in the fridge - it will last for several months.

GRANDMA PRENTICE'S CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix tomatoes, onions, apple cider vinegar, green bell peppers, seeded chopped chile peppers, sugar, unseeded chopped chile pepper, salt, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves together in a large mixing bowl.
• Ladle enough of the tomato mixture into the pitcher of a blender to fill to about 3/4-full; blend until smooth. Pour blended mixture into a large pot. Repeat blending until entire mixture has been pureed.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened, 7 to 8 hours.

COUNTRY-STYLE CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice the peaches or nectarines in half, discard the pits and coarsely chop the fruit into about 1/2-inch pieces.
• Peel the tomatoes if you wish, then chop into the same size pieces as the fruit.
• Place the peaches, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper and garlic in a large saucepan; stir in vinegar, sugar, salt, ginger, allspice and cinnamon, bring to a boil uncovered, stirring often over high heat.
• Reduce the heat to medium; boil gently uncovered, stirring occasionally until peaches become soft and the mixture thickens a little (about 20 minutes).
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer uncovered until the mixture is very thick like applesauce and a small amount of liquid remains (about 20-25 minutes, to prevent sticking to the pan stir frequently near end of cooking).
• Cool and pour into glass jars and chill for up to 3 weeks, or process in a water bath to store for a longer time.
