Sweet and tangy, this homemade ketchup is incredibly simple and is a great way to preserve a big batch of tomatoes grown in the summer. To learn how to blanch tomatoes, take a look at our ‘Blanched Tomatoes’ recipe. If you want to continue simmering to thicken the ketchup further, return the ketchup to the Cooking Chef XL bowl after passing through the sieve and simmer at 102c until reduced to your preference. Keep in an airtight, sterilised glass container, or freeze in an ice cube tray, removing as many cubes as you need and defrosting overnight in the fridge. Make sure your jars are sterilised by running through a dishwasher or rinsing with boiling water and drying in a very low oven.
