This satisfyingly viscous, tomatoey condiment is richer and more rustic in flavor than commercial brands. It is absolutely delicious.

Makes
2 3/4 cups
  • 1 can whole tomatoes in juice
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup cider vinegar
Method/steps
  1. Pure tomatoes with juice in a blender until smooth.
  2. Cook onion and garlic in oil with 1/4 tsp salt in a 4-ltr heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Add spices and 1/2 tsp pepper and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add tomato pure, tomato paste, brown sugar, and vinegar and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until very thick, 45 to 55 minutes (stir more frequently toward end of cooking to prevent scorching).
  3. Pure ketchup in blender until smooth (careful when blending hot liquids). Chill at least 2 hours (for flavors to develop).
