it's not that hard to do your own ketchup, or some quicker variants of it.
One I do:
- chop some onions
- put some oil in a pot
- cook the onions at not too high heat
- after a few minutes, add soy sauce, vineagr, a good amount of sugar, pepper (optionally tomato sauce; exact quantities and spices depend on your unique taste)
- keep cooking for at least 40 minutes with a lid on. now and then check if it's too dry add water
- bluGill 3y agoI see a lot of recipes that call for ketchup, but they also call for all the ingredients in ketchup as well. I often just substitute an extra can of tomatoes, some sugar and spices.
- robin_reala 3y agoYour recipe seems to be missing tomatoes (assuming you weren’t going for an onion ketchup?).
- fedeb95 3y agoit is. I willingly gave a variant to do in the absence of tomatoes. You can add them and get a more proper ketchup (I wrote optionally add tomato sauce, but it's true most people call ketchup only what has tomato in it. To me, the taste is quite similar even in the absence of tomatoes, what really gives the ketchup signature taste, again my opinion, is the balance of vinegar/sugar).
