Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 1 cup water
- 0.25 cup distilled white vinegar
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground allspice
- 0.125 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the tomato paste and water. Whisk together until smooth and well blended.
Stir in the distilled white vinegar, granulated sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, ground allspice, ground cloves, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to ensure no sticking.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the chili sauce simmer uncovered for 10-12 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent scorching and to help the sauce thicken.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add a pinch more sugar for sweetness or chili powder for extra spice.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Transfer the chili sauce to an airtight glass jar or container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks.
