Directions
Stir together the tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, fish sauce, liquid smoke, paprika, smoked paprika, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric, cinnamon, and water in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Stir everything frequently as the mixture comes to a boil. Once it’s boiling, turn the heat down to a gentle simmer. Keep stirring every now and then and let it cook uncovered until it thickens up to your liking, which should take about 20 minutes. When it’s almost done, sprinkle in some cayenne pepper to add a bit of heat. Take the skillet off the heat and let the sauce cool completely before using.
