Yesterday's NYTimes had 4 bbq sauce recipes from various places around the world -- French West Indies, Spain, Georgia (the one near Russia), and Viet Nam. The full article is interesting -- it's the June 2nd edition, page 11 of section F. Here are the recipes: Time: 20 minutes
1. Cook plums in boiling water to cover for 30 seconds. Drain in a colander, rinsing with cold water. Pull off skins. Remove stones.
2. Combine plums, 1 cup water, lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar, garlic, coriander, salt, pepper flakes, black pepper and cumin in a saucepan.
Simmer until plums are very soft, 5 minutes. Puree mixture in a food processor. Return it to saucepan, and stir in the cilantro and dill.
3. Simmer sauce until thick and flavorful, about 5 minutes. If desired, add salt, lemon juice or vinegar to taste. If too tart, add sugar. Serve at room temperature.
Yield: 2 cups.
