All thrifty housewives should probably prepare ketchup for the winter. This is an excellent seasoning for all dishes: vegetables, meat. Without ketchup you cannot make pasta or bake delicious pizza. Even ordinary boiled or fried potatoes, seasoned with aromatic ketchup, turn into a delicious dish (especially during Lent)

A familiar chef from an Italian restaurant told me this recipe, adding that it was his “secret recipe.” I don’t know what exactly is the secret of this ketchup, and how it differs from others - I haven’t compared it. But once, after preparing this ketchup, I realized that I didn’t need other recipes.

What do you need for ketchup?

Tomatoes with thin skin, fleshy 2 (4) kg (cut into 4 parts)
Green, sour apples (Semerenko type variety 250 (500) g with skin, but without core. cut into large slices)
Onion 250 (500) g (peeled and cut into 4 parts)

1 tbsp salt
150 g sugar
7 pcs. carnation
1 dessert spoon of cinnamon
nutmeg on the tip of a knife
75 g vinegar and red pepper (to taste)

How to prepare ketchup?

Place the chopped vegetables in a cooking container and cook for 2 hours, stirring.

Tomatoes release juice immediately, so we don’t add water.

After two hours, everything should be boiled and the apples should “fall apart.” Cool.

1. More labor-intensive: grind in a meat grinder and grind through a sieve (only dry skins should remain in the sieve).
2.Pass through a screw juicer. Moreover, we turn the squeezes twice until they give us all the pulp and become almost dry.

Pour the ground mixture into a cooking container and add spices (except vinegar and red pepper):

Cook for another 40 minutes, stirring so that the ketchup does not burn.

5 minutes before the end of cooking, add 150 g of vinegar and red pepper (in the original recipe, 1 tablespoon, but I add 1 teaspoon so that it is not too spicy)

If you want to make a large portion at once, when adding spices, follow the proportions.

Ketchup is ready. You can eat it right away. It turns out to be approximately 1.2 liters.

Or you can pour it into small sterile jars or glass bottles from under store-bought ketchup, tightly close with “original” metal lids and wrap until completely cooled.

This homemade ketchup keeps well. And it eats great.

Making ketchup at home

Preparing this sauce will not take you much time and effort, but you will not only save money, but also prepare what can truly be called real ketchup. To make juice, you can use any ripe tomatoes, but it is better to take meatier varieties.

Then the juice will be much thicker, which means there will be more ketchup. Five kilograms of tomatoes will yield just over four liters of juice.

Reserve about one glass of juice and cook the rest. At this time, prepare the other ingredients. Peel the onion and grind it in a meat grinder or blender - you need to turn the onion into a puree

If you want it faster, you can use a regular grater. When the juice boils, add the onion puree and cook together.

Try to stir the tomato mass all the time so that it does not burn. As soon as the juice and onions have been purchased, reduce the heat and simmer over low heat for about an hour and a half - the amount should decrease by about half.

The juice will foam - we check the readiness very simply - as soon as the foam stops appearing, we can assume that the juice is ready. Do not add salt and sugar immediately - otherwise, when the juice boils down, the taste of homemade ketchup will be spoiled.

Add potato starch and ground pepper to the cold juice. Mix very well.

When the juice is thick, add salt and sugar and simmer for about five more minutes - don’t be afraid to taste. If necessary, you can increase or decrease the amount of salt and sugar

When you achieve the desired taste, add vinegar. At the very end of cooking, carefully pour in the juice and starch, bring to a boil and turn off - do not overcook, otherwise the ketchup will remain liquid. Pour hot ketchup into jars and roll up.

For taste and aroma, you can add a little cinnamon or cloves, you can also use dried dill or garlic

Ketchup is one of the most popular and loved sauces by all. It goes well with meat, pasta and potatoes. And what a taste it imparts to barbecue... It’s simply incredible! And we eat some dishes with mayonnaise, others with ketchup. And some of us even... mix mayonnaise with ketchup and eat it with dumplings 😁.

Remember Kuzya from the TV series Univer, who called him KETCHUNEZ. Of course, the taste is not for everyone... And for me, real homemade tomato ketchup, without impurities, tastes better.

Yes, the counters have a huge selection of tomato delicacies. But we won’t buy it, we’ll cook it homemade ketchup(Very tasty, real jam!). Moreover, it is much healthier, tastier and you can prepare it exactly the way you want.

And now, in the midst of a ripe harvest, you probably have the opportunity to stock up on several kilograms of tomatoes. They can be made quickly and easily (another recipe). Every year, prudent housewives prepare their family’s favorite sauce, without chemicals, using only natural products. Even children can eat this yummy food, especially if it’s not spicy!

Now we will look at a few delicious recipes homemade ketchup. You can adjust the taste yourself by adding salt, sugar or chili pepper. The most important thing in cooking is to always take a sample. After all, what is tasty for one person may not be to the taste of another.

So let's begin our culinary journey...

Making homemade ketchup is very simple. Now, when the garden is full of ripe harvest, it is especially easy. All you need is what grows in the garden and some seasonings. The result is a thick, aromatic and rich sauce that the whole family can eat.


Ingredients:

  • 2 kilograms of tomatoes;
  • 300 grams of onion;
  • 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, six percent;
  • 300 grams of apples (preferably sour);
  • a full tablespoon of salt;
  • ground black and red pepper (half a teaspoon each) - can be adjusted to taste;
  • 80 grams of granulated sugar.

Step-by-step description of the recipe:


1. Wash the tomatoes and grind through a meat grinder. If you want to make ketchup that does not contain tomato seeds, then you need to rub the mixture through a sieve. I do not do this. In this form, the sauce turns out even thicker and piquant. You can also puree the vegetables with a blender.

2. Peel the apples from the core and skin. Cut into small pieces. Peel and cut the onion in the same way. Now they also need to be passed through a meat grinder or blended.


3. Combine all the pureed vegetables in one saucepan and put on fire. The mass must be boiled until it reduces by about a third and thickens. The exact time is difficult to determine. After all, it all depends on the variety of your vegetables.

Stir the vegetable mixture frequently to prevent the mixture from burning.

4. Now you need to beat the mass again with a blender. This will allow you to break up all the pieces that remain after the meat grinder. If you don't have a blender on hand, you don't have to do this. Add salt, granulated sugar, stir and cook for another 20-30 minutes, until the desired thickness.

5. Once you reach the desired consistency, add the spices and vinegar. Stir and cook for another 2-4 minutes.


6. Pour the sauce into sterilized jars and seal with boiled lids. Turn upside down and cover with a warm blanket or towel. Until the next morning, the jars will have cooled completely and they can be taken down to the basement or other storage place.

Be sure to taste the mixture. Adjust the amount of salt, sugar or spices as needed. Bon appetit!

6. In the glass of juice left at the beginning of the journey, you need to stir the starch evenly. Pour it into boiling ketchup and, with constant stirring, boil for 5 minutes. A minute before it’s ready, add vinegar.

After cooling, the ketchup will become even thicker. Therefore, do not pay attention to the fact that after removing from the stove it seems slightly liquid to you.


7. Pour the sauce into sterile jars and seal with pre-boiled lids. Before cooling, turn over onto lids and cover with a blanket. After this, you can transfer it to a permanent storage location. If you have some ketchup left that doesn’t fit in the jars, you can eat it after it has cooled.

This ketchup can be prepared without being stored. To do this, use the same recipe, just do not add vinegar. As soon as the sauce has cooled and thickened even more, it can be served.
