Ingredients
3 tablespoons butter
2 small shallots, diced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup ketchup
1½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
1½ tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp fresh-squeezed lemon juice
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt, to taste
½ tsp white pepper, or to taste
1¾ cups fresh peach purée (about 5 medium yellow peaches)
Instructions
Peel, pit and slice fresh yellow peaches into wedges. Toss into a blender or food processor and puree until you reach your desired consistency. Finely dice the shallots, garlic and rosemary then set aside.
In a large sauce pan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the shallots and garlic until softened and fragrant. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk to combine. Bring the sauce to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Allow the sauce to simmer over medium-low heat for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. After about 20 minutes of simmering, give it a taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Pour the sauce into quart-size mason jar or other air-tight container and allow to cool on the counter to room temperature before refrigerating.
Notes
Makes about 4 cups. (This recipe fits perfectly in a quart-size mason jar).
