in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. Makes about 1 cup.My kids love to dip or top their food in ketchup. I think they would eat ketchup with every meal if I let them, but I usually don’t like to give them too much because it’s not the healthiest of condiments. I feel a bit better serving them this homemade version, because you can control what goes into it. I poured it into an empty ketchup bottle and the kids didn’t seem to notice the difference at all. I did, but not in a bad way. I thought this had a fresher and more natural taste to it that was really quite nice.

I’ll have to try this recipe! I recently made this one: http://www.foodnetwork.ca/recipes/Tomatoes/recipe.html?dishid=10463It tastes great, but we’re not crazy about the texture. Yours looks much more like what we’re used to!

Amazing idea. I’ve been buying “all natural” ketchup, but this sounds too brilliant not to try!

I too have a couple of ketchup junkies (I think it’s inherited; although I’ve grown out if it in recent years.). I’m going to give this a shot – clever idea keeping it in the same bottle!

I am definitely going to try this! My DH loves ketchup, but being diabetic ketchup makes his numbers fly! We will see if I can sell him on this!
