Since I called mama "Jezebel" a bit ago...

While reading a couple New Orleans/Mississpi Delta cookbooks (links for the 2 books below, if ya wanna check-em out) a while back I “discovered” a sauce I’d never heard of before that sounded intriguing. Sounds like it comes from a long tradition…
Here’s a recipe I found- are any of you familiar? What do you use it for? Is this recipe similar to yours?

Jezebel Sauce

1 (10 ounce) jar apple jelly
1 (10 ounce) jar pineapple fruit preserves
1 (8 ounce) jar prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon ground dry mustard
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
In a small bowl, mix together apple jelly, pineapple fruit preserves, prepared horseradish, ground dry mustard and cracked black pepper. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

I am sure Mama will forgive you're being silly! I am wondering what you would eat that sauce on? Maybe pork? I have never heard of it, although it sounds different and kinda got a kick to it!

[Mama Mangia]

Hey - I happen to resemble that! LOL

and here's my recipe for Jezebel sauce:

1.2 oz. dry mustard
4 oz. jar horseradish
16 oz. jar pineapple preserves (use any flavor you like)
16 oz. jar apple jelly (stay only with apple jelly)

Make paste of dry mustard and horseradish
Add pineapple and apple jelly
Stir by hand until thoroughly mixed
Sauce will keep for several months in refrigerator
Makes 1 quart


BTW - Hey Kev - I posted 4 cake recipes for you - I don't care which order you make them in - Just call me when they are done! LOL

Welllll I have bad news guys, but we're off on a camping trip this weekend (leave in a few hours) and I will have to miss all your fine cakes, but I will take a rain check and of-course here's the keys to my house in case you decide to come over to the hoe-down anyway! I am sure my neighbors will come join you....LOL

[Mama Mangia]

Thanx Cathy - we'll clean up the mess when we're done! LOL
Enjoy camping - and I hope it's warm enough for you - today it was 46 degrees out there! Freezing all over again!

Cathy- we can mail you a few slices... do you like whipped cream, too? (Hee-Hee!)

[Cook Chatty Cathy]

Love whipped cream!!! I was just wishing I had some, I came home from camping and made some chocolate pudding after I finished cooking it and was pouring it into serving size cups I was so wishing I had some whipped cream so I could layer the pudding with whipped cream and finish it off with a spoonful of whipped cream on top then a nice cherry on that! Makes a plain cusard cup of pudding extra-ordinary!!! To make it totally over the top put the pudding into fluted wine or champagne glasses hee-hee!!!

[chubbyalaskagriz]

mmm, that reminds me Cath- a chocolate cream or chocoltate-meringue pie sure sounds good!
