Cuisine American

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cup tomato sauce (or paste reconsituted to equal this amount)
  • 1/4 c brown sugar style sweetener Currently I use truvia complete
  • 1-2 packet regular sweetner
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 c apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 c white vinegar
  • 3 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tsp dried onion flakes
  • 1/2 tsp each garlic and onion powder
  • pinch a big pinch of ground cloves this adds depth

Instructions
 

  • Make sure you're using the dehydrate onion flakes (regular dehydrated onion will work too) in addition to onion powder. This is key in this sauce.
    Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and simmer over low for 20-40 minutes, it will thicken slightly. Use a lid that allows minimal steam to escape and prevents spalshing while simmering.
