Tomato Ketchup - print recipe
 
   
 
Yield:
Ingredients:
 
1.0 kg Ripe (about 5 or 6 medium) tomatos, rinsed and diced
2 lrg Garlic cloves, smashed
1/2 sm Onion, diced
1/4 lrg (1-ounce) red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup Plus 2 Tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 cup Plus 2 Tablespoons cider vinegar
20 ml Salt
2 tsp Pickling spices
1/4 cup Tomato paste
Method:
July '93 The length of time it takes for the ketchup to thicken depends on the water content of the tomatos, so be patient. Make only with vine-ripened tomatos.



Makes 2 cups.



In a medium stainless-steep or enamel saucepan, over a low flame, cook the tomatos and garlic until the sauce begins to bubble. Add the onion and red pepper and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the corn syrup, vinegar, salt, and pickling spices and continue to simmer over the low flame until the sauce reduces and thickens, about 1-1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. (The sauce will reduce by about one-half.) Do not rush. Cook over a low flame to prevent scorching.



Strain through a food mill and stir in the tomato paste. Correct seasoning to taste, cool, and refrigerate in a covered container until needed. The ketchup will thicken slightly as it cools, but it is not the consistency of store-bought ketchup. The ketchup will keep up to three weeks.
