Mumbo Sauce

Mumbo Sauce

Washington D.C. has its own sauce. Outside the Beltway this is what the natives use. It can be found in restaurants all over the area and into Maryland and Virginia. It's an orange/red color and they pour it over French Fries, Fried Rice, Chicken Wings, or even fried fish. It can be found in Chinese, Korean, fast food, and even Italian restaurants. Nobody seems to care about its ethnicity. They just like the taste. Here's a recipe for the stuff.

Makes: 2-2/3 cups
Preparation and cooking time: Less than an hour.

Ingredients
1/2 cup tomato paste
1 cup distilled white vinegar
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup sugar
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (Tabasco, Tapatio, or Cholula will do just fine)

Mix all the ingredients in a pot. Simmer, but do not boil, for about 20 minutes to blend the flavors and thicken it. Taste and adjust to your preference. It can be can drizzled on the food or as a dip. Toss it in the microwave for 20 seconds or so first to take the chill off. Mumbo Sauce can be refrigerated for months. Just re-heat for 20 to 30 seconds in a microwave and serve.
