MICHAEL'S STEAK SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak raisins in hot water until very soft. Set aside.
• Saute onions over medium heat until golden brown.
• Add tomato paste, and cook for 1 minute.
• Increase heat to high, add remaining ingredients (including raisins with soaking water), but not salt and pepper yet. Bring sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, and allow to cool completely.
• Pour cooled sauce into blender no more than halfway, and puree until smooth. Puree in batches if needed.
• Season with salt and pepper, adjusting amount to taste.
• If mixture is not smooth enough, add a few teaspoons of water at a time and puree until it becomes smooth to your liking.
