Linda, I have not, but I usually add a bit of sugar, in the form of Cane Syrup or Molasses, seeing as how I am from Louisiana and this is Cane Country, it only seems right. I also cook it, let it set over night in the fridge and cook it down again the following day, which seems to mellow it out a bit. The old time cooks also swear by cooking it in a black iron pot as opposed to SS as well. I just got my first black iron pot, and have yet to use it, but will when the fall tomatoes come.
