Perfecting the Art of Homemade Ketchup: A Healthier Option

July 03, 20241 min read

If you’re anything like me, homemade condiments are a MUST in our home. In my quest to find us mayo, ketchup, dressing etc without the unneeded ingredients has been difficult! I started making our own and feel so much better feeding my family a cleaner option.

*I’m constantly adding or taking away as I prefect my recipes, so I’ll definitely make it a point to post updated recipes as I continue to grow in this area. For now, enjoy the ketchup recipe that I’m currently using.

The Recipe:

  • ▢6 oz can tomato paste

  • ▢1/4 cup honey

  • ▢1/2 cup white vinegar

  • ▢1/4 cup water

  • ▢1/2 tsp sugar

  • ▢1 tbsp kosher salt

  • ▢1 tsp onion powder

  • ▢1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat; whisk until smooth.

  • Let it come to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring often.

  • Remove from the heat and cover until cool.

  • Chill and store refrigerated in a covered container of your choice. (I prefer a glass container and will mostly use mason jars).
