HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE KETCHUP

Hello beautiful people!

This ketchup recipe I’m about to share with you is one of our kitchen staples.

When it comes to choosing condiment for kids you really need to be very careful because 90% of it is loaded with sugar, corn fructose syrup, soy lectin and lots of unwanted ingredients. Make it mandatory to read ingredients and be sure the ingredient is safe for your little tummy. Better still try homemade is easy, clean and economical.

FRESH TOMATOES

Ketchup is the most popular condiment for kids, is there fries without ketchup? I don’t think so! Ketchup is part of the fries and nugget family the ties can never be broken.

Fresh bright red tomatoes are the best for this recipe I know lots of Ketchup recipe uses tomato paste but choosing fresh ripe tomatoes takes it to a whole new level. Adding spice like the cinnamon stick is essential for flavour but if you don’t have the stick you can use 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon powder or allspice. I used clove ‘kunafuru’ in Yoruba, what is it called in your language? You can skip it if you can’t get it. Black pepper can be replaced with oziza seeds.

I had to come back and update this video because today I use the ketchup to make spaghetti sauce today the outcome is amazing so, you can use this ketchup for pasta and the likes. I also forgot to add that I used carrot in this ketchup recipe is totally optional, I developed the recipe for every kid, not just mine any non-veggie eating kids can have this.

Adding sweetener to ketchup is compulsory, there is no ketchup without sweetener. Choose your sweetener honey, dates and sugar. I choose organic cane sugar in this recipe, believe me, dates and honey work so well too because I had tried both before.
