  Re: (...)
We had so much fun thinking of foods this ketchup will go with - it will stand up to any wild fowl/game, waffles/pancakes, and try it on a turkey sandwich! It's a fun recipe.


HUCKLEBERRY KETCHUP

Recipe By :a Chef's Journey recipe for the 2006 Windsor Fund Raiser Dinner

32 ounces frozen (or fresh) huckleberries or blackberries or if necessary -- blueberries
2 T. shallots -- sliced
2 cups Tawny port
4 T. currant jelly
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/4 cups Huckleberry Jam

In a large sauepan, combine all the ingredients except the Huckleberry Jam.
Mix well, bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook for 2 hours.

Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes.
Puree in a food processor until smooth.

At this point for a smooth 'ketchup' push through a sieve or strainer. (chinois is too fine)
Allow to chill overnight.

Add just enough Huckleberry Jam for a 'ketchup' consistency.
(about 2:1 - puree to jam is a good amount)

NOTES : makes approx. 2 1/2 cups
--------
Since Huckleberries are so perishable, it may be difficult to purchase them. Using Blackberries is a good substitute and add Huckleberry Jam to finish off - they add a tartness that is so good. Here is a website that offers Huckleberry Jam.

I made it yesterday, to go with the duck. I had to use a mixture of blackberries ( my neighbour's are coming through thte fench ) and blueberries, and I scaled it down a bit. But, yawza!!! It was great! today I'm working with fillo, and made some triangles with the leftover duck and sauce. Thank you, Jean!!!!
