Cook Time:

Serves:

Ingredients

 * 1 quart tomato juice


 * 2 T. brown sugar


 * 1 T. dry mustard


 * 1 T. celery salt


 * 1 T. red pepper


 * 1 T. black pepper


 * 1 T. paprika


 * 2 T. cornstarch


 * 1/2 t. allspice


 * 1 T. grated onion


 * 1 1/2 t. Worcestershire sauce


 * 1 cup vinegar

Directions
1.Mix brown sugar, mustard, salt, red pepper, black pepper, paprika, cornstarch and allspice in a heavy saucepan.

2.Combine tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce and vinegar. Add a small amount to the dry ingredients to form a paste to prevent lumping before adding the balance of these liquids. Add grated onion.

3.Cook on very low heat, usually 2 hours until thickened. In the beginning, stir frequently (the cornstarch has to be addressed properly while mixture is still cold).

Note

 * If you don't have tomato juice, you can use 1 quart canned tomatoes pureed in blender and adjust cornstarch to 1 T.
