Simmer, covered, for five minutes then simmer uncovered for one hour, stirring every so often. | 7. Remove the cinnamon stick. | 8. With a food processor, pulse the mixture for a couple of seconds (this has to be done in batches; * process a little longer if you like a less-textured sauce). | 9. Return to the kettle and boil gently, stirring, until the sauce has thickened, about 15 minutes (the sauce will thicken some more as it cools). | 10. Ladle into sterilized jars, either half-pint or pint. | 11. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (for half-pint jars) or 15 minutes (for pint jars). | 12.
