Haws are the fruit of the hawthorn tree and haws have been made into both preserves and sauces for centuries. Traditionally hawthorn-based sauces are used to accompany game.
Ingredients:
750g
Haws (Hawthorn Berries)
450ml vinegar
100g sugar
25g salt
1 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
Method:
Separate each berry from their sprays (removing and stems) and wash them. Throw away any damaged berries and place all the remaining berries in a pan along with the vinegar. Bring to a simmer and cook over a gentle heat for 30 minutes. Press the pulp through a sieve and return to the resultant liquid to the pan along with sugar and seasonings. Boil for 10 minutes, allow to cool then pour into warmed and sterilized bottles and seal.
This makes a delicious ketchup to go with either hot or cold meats. It's excellent with game. For a richer version of this sauce add 1 finely-chopped red chilli and 20g high cocoa content chocolate.
