Regular ketchup is chock full of sugar, salt, preservatives and all sorts of things you probably don't want to think much about. Low Sugar and Low Salt ketchups cost $3 for a small bottle. With this recipe you can make 12 ounces for less than 50¢. It tastes best after the seasonings have a chance to blend, but it can be used right away in a pinch. It tastes very good too, similar to regular ketchup only fresher tasting, and not so cloying and oversweet.
Ingredients
- 6 ounce can tomato paste
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup tap water (depending on desired consistency, I like it with 1/3 cup)
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch cloves
- 1 pinch allspice
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Directions
- In a medium bowl combine all of the ingredients with a wire whisk. Blend well.
- Scrape the mixture into a pint-sized, resealable container.
- Chill overnight, to blend the flavors.
- Use wherever ketchup is desired.
