    There are a couple of really good reasons to make your own ketchup. 1. If you grow your own tomatoes and have a surplus you can make a year's supply at one time. This is really the only way to save money by making your own ketchup. 2. If you are diabetic and love ketchup, but cannot handle the sugar in regular ketchup. I made and canned 14 pints of ketchup last June and have used most of it up. It is SOOO much better than store bought ketchup and has no added sugar.

      I used the Mrs. WAges mix last time and it was great. I sweetened it with Splenda. You can find the mix on Amazon. nchfp.uga.edu also has a recipe totally from scratch wich is also good. The Mrs. Wages mix is just a spice packet and the flavor is really good.

      Another reason: you can’t have onion and every $@@#* ketchup in the store is full of onion.
      Also, you can just use tomato paste and thin it out a bit.

So when my wife tasted your ketchup recipe and said it was not only really good but, "I think it's better than Heinz"....well, what better compliment could I have hoped for? Thanks Chef!

    I used to make ketchup for a girlfriend with severe food allergies - nuts, soy, wheat, and (of all things) corn products. (I also baked for her, before gluten-free became "a thing".) I actually found a recipe online posted either by Hunts or Heinz that I tinkered until it met her nutritional requirements and the taste test. It was several years ago and I've forgotten most of the details (she's since succumbed to one of the allergies), but I remember that using honey as the sweetener seemed to give the ketchup a little more body.

    I went looking for my recipe and I found it.... here you go if you all want to try it, it's not nearly as hard as its made out to be..
    120 oz., or roughly 15 cups of tomatoes
    3.5 cup of vinegar
    (16% to 30% of tomato amount is vinegar varies per recipe)
    3 cloves garlic chopped
    3 cup of brown sugar
    (sugar is almost always equal to vinegar amount)
    2 cups of onions chopped to fit in a blender
    1 tsp. dry mustard
    1 green pepper
    1 tsp. of black pepper
    3 tbsp. of kosher salt
    2 tbsp. allspice
    1.5 tbsp. dry mustard
    1 tsp. of ground clove
    Save out half cup of vinegar for later cooking
    combine tomatoes and vinegar in a blender in stages,
    due to most blenders aren't large enough to accomodate all of
    the liquid at once, for example, put in half cup of vinegar fill
    with fresh tomatoes, blend until all chunks are
    blended up pour almost all of it into the saucepan, leaving just a
    little liquid in the blender for the next batch,
    add a little vinegar, blend, repeat until you reach 120 oz. (my blender
    is only 40 oz, so that was three times.
    Again leave some of the mix behind in the blender, slice up the green
    pepper, put into blender along with the onions chopped up, dice the
    cloves of garlic and also apply them to the mix. Pour the mix in the
    saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook around thirty minutes then add the
    salt, pepper, all spice, mustard, and clove. Cook on a medium heat,
    making sure to stir the mix. After about an hour or so, add the
    last cup of vinegar to taste.
    Also in the last stage of cooking, add corn starch little by little
    until desired thickness is achieved, remember cooling with also cause it
    to thicken.
    enjoy

    Thanks, chef John! I am a French's Ketchup fan. I like it's brighter tomato and slightly sharper flavor, and the oh so slightly higher spice level it has compared to the other majors. I've made a decent mustard and a very good mayo but I've never been able to make a homemade ketchup that beats the major brands. Tomatoes have the most amazing chemistry and what they do to make this stuff so consistently good is truly an art.

    I always make my own ketchup, so I am very pleased that you committed to producing this vid. It isn't that hard to do and the flavors are so much brighter when you use fresh whole ingredients. For instance, I use whole celery seed, clove, allspice, and mustard seed, which I toast lightly in a skillet, then grind in a spice grinder, then add to 1/2 finely diced onion sauteed in butter. Then I add 2 cloves of fresh minced garlic for 1 minute, then add tomato puree from our garden tomatoes before cooking down. I think an anchovy does wonders for the flavor, too (or you may add a dash of Worcester saucce). Guests rave in wonder at the great flavor. You can can it, too!

    This recipe takes way too long. I made a version of this on the stove in less than 45 minutes. I used canned, crushed tomatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, kosher salt, dry ground spices; (cinnamon, cloves, ginger, allspice, mustard), a little bit of water, apple cider vinegar, & turbinado sugar. After cooking the mixture for about 20 minutes, the mixture was thickened. Blended in my blender then poured it through a mesh strainer. It made 1-1/2 pints. And it tastes much better than the store bought stuff and there's no chemical preservatives or HFCS. This was one of the easiest and quickest dupes I've ever made. No joke.

      @helpfulnatural 8 лет назад +8

      opal richardson Both spices are strong flavored so I only use a very small amount of each in my recipe. Maybe a pinch, especially cloves since it can overpower a recipe if too much is added. Generally speaking, I can taste that there are spices in my ketchup but they're just hanging out in the background. If you really cannot tolerate them, leave them out and add a little more of something else that you do like. Smoked or Spanish paprika would give a nice mild BBQ flavor to the ketchup. Or bump up the ginger.

      There are no food additives normally in ketchup I know of other than corn syrup we don’t use here. That’s because of corporate America’s greed on the peoples health. In where I live no corn syrup is used just sugar. I guess I’m thankful for where I live. I can also get store brand ketchup for $1, no food additives no corn syrup. It’s ok, it’s tomatoey rather and many found Heinz to be too garlicky actually. We have our own brand.

The only reason i resort to making ketchup at home is because I have too many tomatoes from the garden and don't feel like canning. Which is why I am here refreshing my memory on how to make it.

    I've heard of taste testing various ketchups, and I saw on on a tv program once where 10 - yes, TEN - different ones were tested. I was not at all surprised that the one coming in dead last, the one generally described as "slimy" and "too sweet" or ""taste nothing but sweet" was Heinz. When people found out what it was, they seemed genuinely surprised to learn that the one coming in in last place (unanimously!) was the top seller AND the one they usually purchase. I, on the other hand, fully expected it.

    If you use tomato paste, it cuts out the slow-cook and blending work, and can be prepared in about 15 Minutes. It may not taste as good as Chef John's this way but when I made it once this way it was delicious. Try adding some Curry Powder to the recipe in this video. Certainly no HFCS, and you can spice it as you like. That is the best advantage to doing it yourself. No HFCS, and you get to spice it as you like. With different spice combinations not available in the store-bought versions it tastes damn good, and can be made for at least a little less money, from ingredients you may typically keep on hand. I would make it again because I like the taste I got, and of course it it just goes damn good on a hamburger. Try it as a dip for veggies as well, like Romaine Lettuce.

    Why make your own Ketchup? Because the FIRST ingredient in most store bought/well known Ketchup {& BBQ Sauce} brands is High Fructose Corn Syrup, not tomatoes as it should be. > Just check the label of the one you got at home.

    • @Itgyrl909

      The majority of brands have High Fructose Corn Syrup or Corn Syrup as the main ingredient. If its listed as #3 on the back of your ketchup bottle then its still a main ingredient, just slightly less than tomato concentrate. Which brings me to the first ingredient you mentioned "Concentrate". Totally not a good ingredient btw.

    • @MrQuagmire26
      @MrQuagmire26 9 лет назад +6

      Actually good quality tinned tomatoes can be better than using fresh tomatoes for these purposes. For example, where I live the fresh tomatoes are usually sour and not very good quality, so choosing a good quality tomato from the can in most cases produces a richer, sweeter and better tomato flavour to dishes. Even a lot of master chefs prefer using canned tomatoes for sauces if they are not vine ripe.

      MrQuagmire26 i have my my own tomatoes in my garden 7 different types, and they're way sweeter than any tomatoe i've ever bought, and since i have a lot of them i make ketchup out of some to store it longer.

    • @meatmotor
      @meatmotor 8 лет назад +1

      +Monique Silva If you use fresh tomatoes, put them in the pot whole. It sounds weird, but they'll quickly stew down even uncut. The reason is: Tomatoes contain an enzyme that makes the juice more watery, but heating to at least 180°F before rupturing the tomato kills the enzymes, resulting in a thicker ketchup.
