Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole (medium, peeled, pitted, and diced) Fresh peaches
- 1 tablespoon (grated) Fresh ginger
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon (adjust to taste) Hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (or to taste) Black pepper
Instructions
1. Prepare the peaches by peeling, pitting, and dicing them into small chunks. Set aside.
2. Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
3. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
4. Stir in the diced peaches and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and release juices.
5. Add the honey, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, hot sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
6. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The peaches should break down and the sauce should thicken slightly.
7. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly for 5-10 minutes.
8. Transfer the sauce to a blender or use an immersion blender to puree until smooth. Be cautious when blending hot liquids; blend in batches if necessary and allow steam to escape.
9. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning (add more salt, pepper, or hot sauce if needed). If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until reaching the desired consistency.
10. Use immediately as a glaze or grilling sauce, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
