INGREDIENTS

2 kg tomatoes
2 apples (approx. 300g)
2 onions (approx. 300 g)
10 cloves
10 whole allspice
10 whole black pepper
5 bay leaves
100 g brown cane sugar
80 ml apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sweet ground paprika
1 tablespoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Wash the vegetables. Cut the tomatoes into quarters. Cut the apples into quarters, remove the core, and cut them into smaller pieces. Peel the onion and also cut it into quarters.
2
Place the prepared vegetables into a pot, add cloves, allspice, pepper, and bay leaves. Cook on medium heat for approximately 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3
Blend the mixture with a hand blender and then strain it. Return it to the pot. Add sugar, apple cider vinegar, ground paprika, and salt. Cook on the lowest heat for approximately 4 hours or until the ketchup reaches the desired thickness. Use a plate test by taking a spoonful of ketchup onto a plate. If liquid starts to separate from the ketchup after a while, continue cooking. Finally, blend to a smooth texture.
4
Fill the finished ketchup into sterilized jars and process for 20 minutes at 85 °C.
