Ingredients
- 1 dried ancho chili
- 1 1/2 cups coffee divided
- 1/2 cup diced red onion
- 3/4 cup frozen blueberries thawed
- 1/2 cup cranberries original flavor
- 4 large garlic cloves coarsely chopped
- 1 dried chipotle chili stems and seed removed, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 4 cups ketchup
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coarse Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup red cooking wine
Instructions
- Combine 1 cup hot coffee in a small bowl with dried ancho chili pepper to reconstitute. The pepper will start to moisten, almost to the point of disintegrating. Submerge with a fork, making sure all areas of the pepper are soggy. Remove pepper from coffee (reserving liquid) to a cutting board. Cut off the stem and then coarsely dice, removing at least 1/2 of the seeds. Seeds = heat. Want less heat? Remove more seeds or vice versa. Place in a large food processor.
- Coat a small frying pan with cooking spray, heat to medium and add onions. Saute until opaque and soft. Remove from range and combine to chipotle chili in the food processor.
- Add blueberries, dried cranberries, garlic and chipotle chili to the food processor with 1 cup reserved coffee from the reconstitution. Pulse until it forms a fine, grainy puree.
- In the top portion of a double boiler combine cinnamon through red cooking wine. Stir well. Slowly pour in fruit puree mixture. Due to my double boiler being small I initially only combined half of the puree mixture and half of the ketchup-spice mixture. I set the other half aside in an airtight container and froze it. I will pick up with the simmering when I choose to use it the next time.
- Simmer for 1-2 hours over low heat, stir frequently. The edges will get syrupy, scrap off and re-combine to mixture.
- Use immediately or freeze.
