Recipe: Homemade Heinz Ketchup

Ingredients:
– 1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
– 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1/2 tsp onion powder
– 1/2 tsp garlic powder
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/4 tsp ground mustard
– 1/8 tsp allspice
– Pinch of cinnamon
– Pinch of cloves

Instructions:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar. Stir well to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.

2. Add the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, ground mustard, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves to the saucepan. Mix everything together until well incorporated.

3. Let the mixture simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The ketchup will reduce and thicken as it cooks.

4. Taste the ketchup and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt or sugar to suit your taste preferences.

5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the ketchup cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the ketchup to a blender or food processor.

6. Blend the ketchup until smooth and silky. If you prefer a chunkier ketchup, blend it to your desired consistency.

7. Transfer the homemade Heinz Ketchup to a clean glass jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

8. Serve your homemade Heinz Ketchup with all your favorite dishes – from hot dogs and burgers to fries and meatloaf. Enjoy the rich, tangy flavor that will elevate your everyday meals!
