Heinz 57 Sauce

Serves : 36



1/2 cup raisins

1/2 cup water

1 1/3 cups white vinegar

1 cup tomato paste

2/3 cup malt vinegar

2/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup water

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vegetable oil

1 tsp. lemon juice

1/2 tsp. onion powder

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Make the raisin puree by combining the raisins with the water in a

food processor or blender. Blend on high speed for 1 minute or until

the puree is smooth. Measure 1/4 cup of this puree into a medium

saucepan. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk until smooth. Turn

heat up to medium/high and bring mixture to a thorough boil. Reduce

heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 1/2 hour or until thick. Let

sauce cool and then refrigerate it in a covered container for at least

24 hours.



NOTES : Heinz adds coloring to give their product it's darker color,

so yours will not look the same, yet it should taste just as good.
