HOMEMADE KETCHUP



Homemade Ketchup image

This ketchup does come close to those name brands in terms of taste, texture and color. I've never had a tomato paste-based ketchup that I liked, so I decided to cook down crushed tomatoes instead. By using the slow cooker, we take most of the labor out of the process.

Time 12h10m

HOMEMADE KETCHUP

Homemade ketchup is a great way to use up excess tomatoes from the garden

Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories     Condiment

Time 1h20m

Yield Makes about 2 litres

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 good-size onions , very roughly chopped
250g celery , very roughly chopped
5 tbsp vegetable or olive oil
4 garlic cloves , sliced
1 tsp ground coriander
1 short cinnamon stick
1 tsp allspice
½ tsp ground black pepper
2 tsp celery salt
2kg ripe tomatoes , roughly chopped
3 tbsp tomato purée
½ tsp Tabasco sauce
200ml white wine vinegar
200g golden caster sugar

Steps:

  • Put the onions and celery into a food processor and whizz until finely chopped. Heat the oil in a very large saucepan, add the onions and celery, cover, then soften over a low heat for 5 mins. Add the garlic, cook 5 mins more, then tip in the spices and cook for 1 min.
  • Now stir in all remaining ingredients and bring to the boil. Keep on a bubbling simmer, uncovered, for 1 hr until the tomatoes are squashy and the liquid has reduced by several inches. Discard the cinnamon stick.
  • Whizz the mix with a stick blender until smooth, then sieve into a bowl. The ketchup will thicken a little when it cools, but if yours seems very runny (this will depend on the juiciness of your tomatoes), put it back on the heat and cook a little longer, stirring often, until reduced. Keep the ketchup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 months, or freeze in batches. If you like, keep in sterilised bottles or jars for up to 6 months - see tip, below.
