Homemade Ketchup In A Blender

[Red Lion Lass]

This recipe will keep for several months, just as is, in the refrigerator. Of course, you may add other seasonings or make it less spicy by reducing or eliminating the red pepper flakes.

Ingredients:

1 onion, cut into chunks
1 clove, garlic (left whole)
5 tablespoons, frozen apple juice concentrate (undiluted)
1 6-ounce can, tomato paste
1/2 cup, cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon, pepper
1/4 teaspoon, red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon, ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon, ground cloves

Directions:

In a blender, combine the onion pieces, garlic clove, and apple juice concentrate and blend until a puree is formed. Add the tomato paste, vinegar, pepper, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, and cloves. Blend until ketchup is smooth. Store in the refrigerator in a tightly covered jar.

Makes approximately 1 1/2 cups.
