Welcome back! Have you visited our new site, Saving Naturally, where we help you live healthy and spend less?
As requested, here is my favorite ketchup recipe. My disclaimer is that it's not my own creation- I wish it was. We like this so much better than bought ketchup. You could double or triple the recipe easily (or more, if you have a lot of little ketchup lovers), although it's so easy that I often make just one smaller batch at a time. I imagine that you could also preserve it, although I haven't tried to yet.
Klassic Ketchup
1 6-oz can of tomato paste
1 1/2 Tbsp vinegar
1 Tbsp sweetener
1 tsp Braggs or soy sauce
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/8 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp salt
2 1/2 Tbsp water
Add all ingredients together in a small pot or saucepan, simmering for 10-15 minutes on low-medium heat, stirring often. Allow to cool, then keep in the refrigerator. Usually lasts 2-3 weeks, if you make sure it is well sealed (otherwise it can spoil faster).
This recipe is from my favorite vegan cookbook (not that I'm vegan, but I love to find great vegetarian recipes, and this book has many of them).

I love your web site. A question on the ketchup recipe. Isn't Bragg's the same as MSG? thanks
