Homemade tomato paste ketchup

Do you want to know the ingredients of ketchup? Prepare it at home using simple ingredients! Usually, ketchup contains a lot of stabilizers, dyes, sweeteners and acidifiers (and further - pepperizers, savory agents...), which are not entirely of natural origin. E-additives, preservatives, etc. are found in almost everything we buy in the store. Therefore, it is best to cook everything at home - both your health is in order and the savings are obvious. For this ketchup, the most important thing is to choose a good tomato paste. And then it’s a matter of little things.

Milada, it’s true - there’s nothing better than homemade! And by appearance and taste you can’t tell which is store-bought and which is homemade, but homemade is harmless! Thank you very much for the recipe!
