Paleo Plum Sauce

6 large plums, pitted and peeled*
1 apple, cored, chunked and steamed until soft (or 1/2 cup applesauce)
1/2 cup grapeseed oil
1/3 cup thai fish sauce
1/4 cup orange juice (or 2 TBLSP 100% orange juice concentrate)
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2-inch chunk ginger, peeled (optional)
2 tablespoons raw honey

Remove skins from plums by dipping in boiling water for 1 minute or until skin breaks; cool immediately by dipping in ice water or running under cold tap water. Remove pits and discard. *Note: This is an optional step but yields a more professional result. (Skins may be left on if you don't mind them).

Combine all ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to very low and simmer for about 10 minutes.

Use sauce for basting or serve as an accompaniment for dipping.

    1. If I remember correctly, it yields almost a quart. I used it in the chicken and walnuts with plum sauce and had about two pint jars left over. I have been thinking I need to make this one again! Enjoy!!
