Ingredients:
500g/5 cups hawthorn berries
350ml/1 cup cider apple vinegar
350ml/1 cup water
200g/1/2 cup honey
1⁄2 tsp salt
1⁄2 tsp pepper
Method:
Heat the berries with the vinegar and water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes.
Strain through a sieve, pushing the berries through with a spoon, discarding the seeds and skin. Return to the heat with the rest of the ingredients and simmer until the thickness of ketchup.
Strain through a sieve into clean, sterile bottles or jars. This should keep for around a year and makes a great accompaniment to dark meats, like venison or gamey birds like Pigeon.
