We always end up throwing out ketchup, since we use it so infrequently that it goes bad before we need it a 2nd time after opening. So I’m excited to try this, canning in 1/2 and 1/4 pints!
I am down here in Houston, Texas. I just started my tomatoe seed starts. We usually place in the garden in anywhere from St Patricks day to April Fools day. I think I will book mark 15 pounds of tomatoes, to make this ketchup!! Thank you!!
I have made this exact recipe and it's delicious! I also was confused by the 45 minute time frame. I had to simmer for about 4 hrs to get it to the perfect consistency.
I have some tomatoes still in the freezer. I think I will follow your lead and use them for ketchup. Never made that before. Thank you for inspiring me!!❤
Yay ketchup! You’re recipe sounds perfect for me. I cannot wait for summer to try this, consider this video bookmarked. 🎉. I love being able to have my own home canned tomato products as well.
I just tried this recipe out. It's absolutely delicious!! The one thing I'm going to try with the next batch is hit it briefly with my immersion blender before ladling into jars.
I can’t wait to try this! Thank you for showing us and giving us your altered amounts with fewer tomatoes. I do have a question. I found a food mill at a second-hand store (I don’t think it was ever used!) but I don’t know a lot about them. I watched a RUclips video and it helped some. But you said you would “run it through twice”. Do you mean the strained part or the part that gets trapped in the basket to make sure all of the good stuff comes out?Sorry for a question that might be obvious to most people but I haven’t used one so I am clueless. Lol
The Victorian BBQ sauce from the ball book is fantastic I thought. Base is rhubarb which I was excited to find another use for. Even my neighbors loved it. It has a really complex flavor and I can use for ketchup, BBQ sauce, or even a marinade. 😋
I'm brand new to canning. I made some homemade ketchup, but am not comfortable with the recipe I modified by decreasing the sugar. I researched and it sounds like decreasing the sugar does NOT affect safety. Is that correct? Also, is it safe to use your recipe for 1/2 pint jars? I don't think I could eat a whole pint before it spoiled.
Decreasing the sugar does impact acidity so it is something you want to be careful with. This recipe is based off a tested ball recipe, the adjustments I made to it are considered safe adjustments. I have a link in the description box on safely adjusting canning recipes that would be good to test out. I’d feel safe canning this in 1/2 pints but I’d process for the same amount of time as pints
There is a table in the book she mentioned. It’s probably online somewhere too, but it just depends on how high you are. It’s different for each 1000’ you go up.

I wish we were starting tomatoes.. they don't get planted out here until 3rd week of May so I have a bit! Let me know if you do try this!

Thank you for watching! Let me know if you do try it!
Woo hoo. I’ll be trying this recipe. I’ve tried several and we didn’t like well enough to keep using. This could be the one!!! Thanks for sharing❤
We are super happy with it! I hope you are too :)

Awesome! Let me know if you do try it!
Very good video! You have inspired me, I’ve been thinking about my grandmothers homemade ketchup and the possibilities. TY
Awesome! Thank you!

So happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Love hearing the dogs play with their squeaky toy 😂.
Lol had to leave that in :)
Looks amazing will be giving this a go for sure.
Let me know if you do!

Oh I should have been more clear on that. I will run everything left in the basket through a second time to make sure I get everything out.
We've made fruit ketchup but I was not a fan, would be nice to try regular ketchup. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Love your channel!

Needed and grateful!
Ive never done the hot water canning. Could i do a small batch and refrigerate?
Yes! I think it would also freeze well.
@@abbeyverigin ....thank you.
WOOOOOOW🙂🙂👍 Superb! 🙂 Stay blessed! 👍 Keep it up! 🙂 God bless you abundantly forever 🙂 Enjoy amazingly blessed life 🙂 Stay happy and well protected.
Great job! I personally like a little more vinegar

How do you get it to get thicker mine is still runny
How do you make adjustments for higher elevation?
There is a table in the book she mentioned. It’s probably online somewhere too, but it just depends on how high you are. It’s different for each 1000’ you go up.
Here is some info on adjusting for elevation :)
