Ginger Plum Applesauce
adapted from epicurious

6-7 apples, mix of fuji, granny smith, and pink lady
6-7 plums, red or black
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
small knob of ginger, grated

peel, quarter and seed the apples. pit and quarter the plums. throw everything into a big pot and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is very tender and falling apart, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. if you don't want the plum skins in your sauce, push mixture through a mesh sieve and throw away peels. i didn't mind the soft plum skins so i just mashed it with a potato masher.
