Recipes FAQ

Can I use fresh tomatoes instead of tomato paste?

Using tomato paste gives the ketchup a thicker consistency and a more concentrated flavor. If you use fresh tomatoes, you’ll need to cook them longer to reduce the liquid and thicken the ketchup.

Can I use other types of vinegar?

Yes, you can use white vinegar or red wine vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar. Each type of vinegar will give the ketchup a slightly different flavor.

How can I make the ketchup less spicy?

Reduce the amount of chipotle powder or omit it entirely. You can also add a little more honey to balance out the spiciness.
