There should be no children who don't love ketchup. In fact, we can make our own ketchup at home, which is clean and affordable.

It can be made in the season when tomatoes are abundant, when the price of tomatoes is cheaper. The production process is also very simple. First, we blanch the tomatoes with boiling water to remove the skins. We can choose to crush the tomatoes with a juicer. Finally, we can put them in a non-stick pan and cook them slowly with low fire. This process must be kept stirring.

Drop a few drops of lemon juice when the tomato sauce is thick, which can prolong the shelf life and add some flavor.

In the process of boiling, you can add a little sugar according to your personal preference. After boiling into a sticky state, find a container to seal it, and finally put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration. Generally, it can be kept for about 1 days.

after all, our own products are free of preservatives and additives, so it is better to finish them as soon as possible.

If you want to keep it longer, put it in a glass jar quickly when the tomato sauce is hot, because it can automatically become sealed in the process of hot air. After sealing, let's put it in a safe for refrigeration, which will last for a long time, about one month. Of course, tomato sauce can still be eaten after one month, but it is not recommended to continue eating, especially for children at home.

It is worth noting that when we choose tomatoes, we must prepare them fresh and without scars. In addition, the bottle we use to hold ketchup must be sterilized, and it is best to scald it with boiling water to dry the water.

Not only ketchup, but also many jams can be made by ourselves at home, such as mulberry jam and orange jam. We don't need to make too much at one time, but it's enough to eat for a few days, so it's healthier to make fresh ones after eating.
