Cranapple hot sauce

[worlok]

This stuff is mild. I made it for the average person who likes a lil bit o heat.

My only problem was these little fibers that wouldn't cook out not matter how long I cooked it. Must have come from the berries... It's good though. You don't notice them when you have the sauce on food only when tasting it by itself.

I like trying weird types of hot sauce... This one's very tart from the berries and it's a hot sauce so it has onions and garlic in it too. It's nice on poultry... like Turkey... ;-) Initially my 12 year old son said it wasn't hot enough so I added some ghost pepper to it. I started off with two little home grown naga types in the batch but those peppers weren't that hot I guess. It's still a mild hot sauce since I give it away to others and these other people like milder hot sauces not the lava that you and I prefer.

It's possible you had a mealy apple not suitable for cooking.

Anything's possible. My girlfriend was using the same overall batch of apples to make really yummy homemade apple sauce and apple pies and there were no issues with any of that. I guess it could have been one apple. I just assumed it was something I didn't know about cranberries...

Could have been the cranberries if you did not reduce them separately with sugar, into a jelly.

Then that was it. I threw them in with the apples to cook and pop and blended them all after but it was before I got the ninja. Next time I would do the berries on their own first. Ya live and learn.... Thanks

That's probably it. Those buggers can take awhile, I'd reduce separately. This way you don't overcook your sauce as well.
