I love ketchup, too, but I haven’t used any Heinz products since the 2004 elections.
Me either, I make my own:
24 pounds ripe tomatoes quartered (about a case from Costco or Sams)
2 whole red (hot) peppers, seeded, or more if you like it hot!
1/4 cup olive oil
5 cups onions chopped
1 head garlic
4 teaspoons whole cloves
3 sticks cinnamon broken up
2 teaspoons allspice
3 tablespoons celery seed
3 cups cider vinegar
cup sugar
1/4 cup salt
Boil the first five ingredients till soft (about 1 hour) and put through a food mill.
Tie the spices in a little baggie of cheesecloth and add to the tomatoes.
Add the sugar.
Simmer to reduce the volume by 2/3rds
Add the Vinegar
salt to taste and remove the spice packet
Simmer an additional 15 minutes.
Can in pint jars with processing in a boiling water bath 15 minutes.
Serve with Steak and French Fries!
