Preparing homemade tomato ketchup is just a few minutes job – super easy to make, rich in flavor and definitely healthier than the store-bought version. Arguably the most famous sauce in the world, ketchup can be found in every household kitchen, can be used in a lot of different recipes and enjoyed with a variety of snacks.
Store-bought ketchup contains some ingredients that I tend to avoid, such as a list of preservatives. The homemade version, on the other hand, is cheaper and all about natural flavoring, ingredients and spices. It really takes very little effort to make and tastes so much better than supermarket ones.
