Volume 1, Oct. '98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ -------------------------------- 6 (About) Plums -- cut up
4 Tsp Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp Cornstarch
2 Tsp Sugar
1 Tsp Fresh Ginger -- grated
1 Clove Garlic -- minced Puree the plums in a food processor or blender (you should have
about 2 cups). Combine with the remaining ingredients in a 1-qt
glass container and microwave on high or full power, uncovered,
for about 8 mins, stirring every 3 mins. The sauce is done when
it's thick and clear. Makes about 2 cups. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I used canned plums, and it works just as well. I think there is enough
sugar in the canned fruit to omit the sugar. It is very good also if
you omit the soy, ginger, and garlic. Less Oriental that way.
