I followed that up yesterday, with a batch of my Guava Lava hot sauce. Habanero peppers, onions, garlic, guava pulp and shells. It's hot, sweet, and fruity, with a great flavor.
This sauce is the best thing I have ever seen for pairing with pork.
It's easy to make, and the ingredients are found at any decent hispanic grocer.
GuavaLava Hot Sauce III
16 ounces White Vinegar
8 ounces water
3 ounces Raisins
1 small yellow onion, sliced thin, about three or four ounces
3 cloves of Garlic, smashed
8 (or more) Habanera Peppers stems off, cut into quarters, seeds and all
½ Teaspoon Allspice
Dash Salt
1 Lemon, Juice and Zest
12 ounces Guava Nectar (Goya)
14 ounces frozen Guava Pulp (Sembrador brand))
16 ounce can Guava Shells, drained (Goya or Conchita brand)
Method:
In a heavy, non reactive pan, bring heat the vinegar.
Add the raisins, onion, garlic, Habaneras, lemon juice, and seasonings.
Add in the Guava nectar, Pulp and Shells
Bring to a boil, and then lower the heat and simmer for about 30 min. Stir. a few times.
Process in batches, in a blender, until the sauce a liquid. Strain, and discard anything that does not drain through the strainer.
Add the Guava Nectar to the sauce, and thin to the consistence you want. I like it to be a little thinner than catsup. You won't always use all the Nectar.
Mix well, and refrigerate.
