Have you ever made your own? What do you put in it? I have decided to try
making my own. Found a recipe that calls quite simply for tomato sauce,
brown sugar, vinegar and allspice. I have all of these things and I can use
the brown sugar/Splenda mix to cut the carbs further. I hope this works.
And the recipe is in a small enough proportion that I won't need to can it.
Although technically I could can chili sauce since I have all of the canning
equipment. I presume that I can do this in a HWB. Since tomatoes are
acidic. The only things I have tried to can so far are fruit.

That sounds a little plain to me but it might be what you like. I've
actually never used allspice so I don't even know what flavor that provides.
Chili sauce normally (?) contains some heat too....chili peppers of some
sort. When I want to try something new, I usually look at *several*
recipes, pick and choose ingredients, and my final result is often a
combination of many. You might have to try several times to get exactly what
you love. Good luck. Let us know if you come up with a good mix. :)

My preferred brand is the HoMade. I don't think it has any heat to it. It
is sweet.

I've used allspice a lot. It's sort of like a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg and
clove.

I've posted the recipe here in the past and I'm pretty sure you also
participated in the thread. I like what I make, but I don't like the
work of preparing all those tomatoes and other vegetables; nor do I
like the canning process or storing all those jars.

Conclusion: I buy Homade brand chili sauce because it's the commercial
sauce that I like best. It may not be Grandma's, but it's close
enough.

Allspice is nutmeg light. I use it in place of nutmeg, which
(everyone knows by now) I think ruins the flavor of anything it
touches - no matter how little is used.

It's not supposed to be hot. I have absolutely NO idea why it's
called chili sauce when it has bell peppers. Maybe it's the American
translation of some traditional European recipe. It seems like
everything is a pepper when I find internet recipes, so matter how
sweet or hot the peppers are supposed to be. Reading those computer
translated recipes when peppers are involved is a big guessing game
for me and I usually end up giving up (unless I know someone who
speaks the language and can tell me what it really says).

I *love* allspice and even though it's actually the membrane that
surrounds the nutmeg itself, I like mace too.

Shouldn't that be HoeMaid? ;)

Wouldn't it be simpler to just buy bottled chile sauce, and doctor it
to suit. And there are many no sugar added chili sauces out there:
http://organicvillefoods.com/products/condiments/organic-chili-sauce/
And lots of no sugar recipes:
http://www.gfedge.com/2011/10/thai-sweet-chili-sauce-low-carb/

I don't like any of the brands of bottled chili sauce, every one I've
tried is sickening sweet slop with lots of chems. I always make my
own... and how does one define chili sauce anyway... varieties are
infinite. If you have a blender you can make chili sauce... I don't
add sugar per se, I use fresh fruit for sweetening... red seedless
grapes are a fine sweetener, but can use an apple, a plum, a peach,
whatever is in season, even watermelon... and in summer I always have
a glut of vine ripened tomatoes, hot peppers, and other veggies...
I'll make up a big bowl of fresh salsa and puree some with whatever
additions I feel like at the moment for basting. I think uncooked
sauce works better for basting too, less chance of burning.

I have never had a decent commercially made chili sauce either. There
is a local company that makes decent quality jams and jellies and also
make chili sauce. The jams are pretty good. The chili is not as horrible
as most of the other commercial types, but ita far cry from the home
made stuff I grew up on.

I don't use it enough to bother to make my own but I have a SiL who puts
it on just about everything. so she makes it and gives me a jar or two
each year. My oldest brother also makes it, but. frankly, his his not
very good. It is always way to watery.

Allspice is a New World spice, nothing to do with nutmeg: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allspice

Also called pimento/pimenta, but these names are used for other very different things too, so "allspice" is the safer name to use.

I make it every year from the recipe in the old Better Homes & Gardens
cookbook. There's (I think) 12-14 pounds of tomatoes, 4 cups each of
diced onions, celery, and sweet peppers, a pound or so of brown sugar,
several cups of cider vinegar, salt, and assorted spices.

I think the secret is to make sure you scoop out as much of the liquid
as possible after you get the tomatoes cooking. The recipe says to
remove 7 cups of liquid, but I aim for more than that.

I grow enough tomatoes, onions, and peppers to make this, so it
doesn't cost me too much.

I agree.. Allspice has uses. I added some extra to my corned beef boil a few days ago, along with extra bay leaf (powdered) and lots of extra crushed red pepper.

Indeed. I blame early-morning pre-coffee mis-parsing. (It was really mid-coffee, not pre-coffee.)

What do you use mace for? I use so little, I usually have none in the house. Will keep nutmeg around, but rarely use it either. Allspice is a Caribbean standard, and I use much more of it.

You're right about the allspice, I use it "just because" too.

Looking at my recipe file, I have quite a few that call for mace...
but most of them have been one time only or the "will do someday"
type. If you make sausage, it's one of the spices in
Nurnberg/Nuremberg Sausage.

Here are two recipes I made and portioned out as one of a collection
of spice mixes I made for family members one Christmas.

Beau Monde Seasoning Mix
By Peggy Trowbridge Filippone, About.com Guide

Makes: about 1/2 cup

Prep Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

1 Tablespoon salt
1 Tablespoon ground bay leaves
2 Tablespoons ground white pepper
2 Tablespoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 Tablespoon ground allspice
1 Tablespoon ground mace
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 Tablespoon ground cloves

Preparation:
Combine salt, bay leaves, white pepper, black pepper, nutmeg,
cinnamon, allspice, mace, celery seed, and cloves.

Pour into a glass jar and store in a cool, dark place.

Beau monde is a great seasoning mix for poultry, fish, beef,
vegetables, and sauces.


14 Spice Dry Rub Mix
http://www.theyummylife.com/dry_rub_mix#EmbedRecipe_69

Ingredients

1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons cup salt (or reduce the amount)
1/4 cup paprika (sweet Hungarian)
1/4 cup smoked paprika (Spanish)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 tablespoon celery salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon rubbed dried sage
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

Spread brown sugar out on a baking sheet for 1-2 hours so it can dry
out and avoid clumping. Combine all ingredients in a food processor
and pulse until well mixed. Or, sift the ingredients into a bowl and
whisk them until mixed.

Store in airtight container.

TO USE: Sprinkle dry rub mix on all sides of the meat (chicken, beef,
or pork) and rub it in. If you have time, wrap or cover the meat and
refrigerate it for 1 hour (or as long as 12 hours) before cooking. The
fridge time will enhance the flavor, but it's also good if you cook
the meat right away. Grill, pan fry, or bake the meat according to
your preference. Also good for seasoning meat in slow cooker.

VARIATIONS:
--For a spicier blend, use hot chili powder (rather than mild) and
more cayenne, cumin, black pepper.
--For a sweeter blend, increase the allspice, cloves, mace, and brown
sugar.
--For a smokier blend, omit the sweet paprika and substitute all
smoked paprika.

Did you buy an extra one too? I think I'll make my extra this week.
What I do isn't add more of one component of "pickling spices", I just
add more of everything and keep a bottle on hand specifically for
corned beef. What I hope I remember is not to add any before my
corned beef comes to a boil this time because of all the yucky protein
foam I want to remove before I let it simmer for as many hours as it
takes for it to cook and tenderize. Because I normally only cook
corned beef once a year, it seems like I *always* forget that part
until it happens. :(

It is a condiment for meats. It is great with roast beef or meatloaf, on
sandwiches. My SiL loves the stuff and has it with eggs. It is
basically tomatoes, onion, green peppers, celery, cooked up with various
spices.

Just because it's in the name doesn't necessarily mandate it's in the
recipe.

The descriptions I've seen here match up with my experience. Most so named
chili sauces I have ever seen had little or no chili pepper in them.
Counterintuitive, to be sure, but true nonetheless.

Not to be confused with any of the many Asian chile preparations available
which may or may not be called chile sauce. Note that chile with an e on the
end would refer to actual chile peppers, while chili does not necessarily
refer to peppers. Chili refers to either a soup/stew type of dish or a
condiment sauce, either of which may or may not contains chiles depending on
where it originates and who made it.

Another misnomer (the way it's used) is curry. Very rarely does a
curry or curry powder contain curry leaves. There's also (as far as I
know) never any cheese in head cheese!

It's more correctly called Welsh Rarebit. However, I agree that

Do not know about her, but I am trying to figure it out. I see it in
recipes and I wonder if they sell it here. I was raised with Tabasco
sauce and vinegar with tabascos in it.

The name is from the city of Hamburg, not any part of the pig.

Bzzzzt!

From Wikipedia:

"The first recorded use of the term Welsh rabbit was in 1725..."

"The word rarebit is a corruption of rabbit, "Welsh rabbit" being first
recorded in 1725 and the variant "Welsh rarebit" being first recorded in
1785 by Francis Grose."

No! Really? That's astonishing. Thank you SO MUCH for clearing that up!

It's a condiment. What recipes do you see that call for it?

Tabasco is nothing at all like chili sauce. Chili sauce is more like
ketchup.

So you only respond to the side point and that only with bait.

I win. You were wrong.

Bait ignored.

Heinz chili sauce is chili sauce in name only. I make my own, but
there is a 'Gourmet chili' [I think that's the brand name] that I have
used as a substitute. It is more like relish than ketchup, and has
lots of green [pepper and celery] visible, though the tomatoes are in
there, too.

I'm interested in the real name. Tried googling Gourmet brand chili
sauce and got zip.

If you're thinking about canning your own chili sauce, you should look
at this classic recipe from the University of Georgia National Center
for Home Food Preservation:


Spicy Chili Sauce

Ingredients:
4 quarts peeled, cored, chopped tomatoes (about 24 large)
2 cups chopped onions
1 1/2 to 2 cups chopped sweet green peppers (about 3 medium)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 Tbsp. salt
1 Tbsp. celery seed
1 tsp. ground allspice
1 tsp. ground cloves
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 to 1 1/2 cups vinegar (5%)

Directions (for hot pack):
Combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil, simmer until as thick as
desired, about 1 to 2 hours. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.

Pour hot sauce into clean, hot half pint or about six pint jars, leaving
1/2 inch headspace. Wipe jar rims. Adjust lids and process 15 to 20
minutes in a Boiling Water Bath (212�F).

Boiling Water Bath:
Place jars in canning kettle. Cover with water to 1" above the lids.
Bring to a boil and boil for 20 to 25 minutes. Use a timer.

Makes about 6 pint jars.

From http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/publications/uga/uga_can_tom.pdf, top of
page 10.

There are no chile peppers in this and it uses mostly sweet spices. It
takes a couple hours to cook down to where it's thick enough.

I have seen chili sauce in a recipe for sweet & sour meatballs. Tabasco
does not sound like it would work, neither does salsa. People say Heinz
makes it.

Someone told me that Heinz made it. You could add your own garlic powder
to ketchup and you would not have to buy chili sauce. Thanks.

I don't care for the Heinz so much. It tastes pretty much like ketchup.

The Homade that I really like does taste different. I see that it has red

This matter has been discussed on rfc since about forever. Here is an
example:
<http://groups.google.com/group/rec.food.cooking/msg/a4e3ad9cac7e7730>

There are also English, Scotch, and Irish "rabbits".
