Sugar Free Ketchup
Description
This sugar free ketchup recipe starts with quality chopped tomatoes or passata as a base, combined with apple cider vinegar to provide acidity. Garlic, Dijon mustard, onion powder, allspice, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper add depth and warmth to the flavor profile. The optional addition of erythritol offers a subtle sweetness without actual sugar, though other sweeteners can be used as preferred.
The sauce is simmered gently for about 30 minutes while stirring frequently, allowing it to reduce and thicken. A final blend with an immersion blender ensures a smooth, uniform texture similar to conventional ketchup.
This ketchup pairs well with a variety of dishes needing a tomato-based sauce and can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, remaining fresh for three to four weeks. Fresh tomatoes can be used if peeled and blanched ahead of time, which adds extra preparation but can enhance flavor.
The recipe provides nutritional information and encourages adjusting sweeteners and seasonings to individual taste.
