INSTRUCTIONS
Yesterday's NYTimes had 4 bbq sauce recipes from various places around
the world -- French West Indies, Spain, Georgia (the one near Russia),
and Viet Nam. The full article is interesting -- it's the June 2nd
edition, page 11 of section F. Here are the recipes: Time: 20 minutes
Cook plums in boiling water to cover for 30 seconds. Drain in a
colander, rinsing with cold water. Pull off skins. Remove stones.
Combine plums, 1 cup water, lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar, garlic,
coriander, salt, pepper flakes, black pepper and cumin in a saucepan.
Simmer until plums are very soft, 5 minutes. Puree mixture in a food
processor. Return it to saucepan, and stir in the cilantro and dill.
Simmer sauce until thick and flavorful, about 5 minutes. If desired,
add salt, lemon juice or vinegar to taste. If too tart, add sugar.
Serve at room temperature. Yield: 2 cups. Posted to bbq-digest by
