That's the beauty of something like this..you make it your OWN!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

nothing beats home made!! Have FUN with it!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I will ever now and again..I am still smarting from that video.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

sounds wonderful!!

[@NorthlanderMN]

You would be a great neighbor. Looks so good. You have very good advise. Great job!

[@maggieadams8600]

I love your ideas, sharing recipes and methods, thanks again! :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I try and always use roma tomoatoes..I DO grow my own..but sometimes it is not enough..andI buy some by the bushel at the famers market..some times I get some from the discount warck at the grocery store and throw them in my freezer for next canning day.

[@shellyswan14]

Just a lil family joke you will appreciate. When we were kids my Gmother made whipped creme, of course she made it. She put it on the table with desert and my cousin who was about 8-9 at the time asked her if she had any real whipped creme, the one in the can?? LOLOL

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

If you freeze them ( even for a few hours) when you drop them in boiling water..the skins split then slip off as you peel them..you CAN use ANY tomato..however roman has the least amount of water...so if you use regular tomatoes..you will be cooking it down longer. Hope this helps?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

you are MORE than welcome hun!!

[@suziidfl]

Awesome video. It's so much eaiser watching you doing it, than my thinking about doing it. You are proof that it's not as hard as I thought it would be. Can't wait until my tomatoes are ready for picking.

[@ThePreparedMom]

Perfect timing! Ketchup is on my canning list for later this week.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I agree always!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yup a re-purposed syrup bottle!! If you want to make some now..just go to your local farmers market!

[@loves2spin2]

Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@jaggers116]

I used to help my x bf's mother make ketchup. She taught me a lot but I have to say you taught me way more. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us all. You work so hard. ✌👍

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yup! Got it at a yard sale for $7 nothing better unless it is coffee over and open fire!

[@AndreasCreations]

I LOVE your videos and really learn a LOT. I dehydrate my tomato skins and turn them into tomato powder - whenever I have skins from tomato projects. I never dehydrate tomates for this purpose. Seems a waste to me to throw them away or do something else with them. Also seems a waste to use regular tomatoes to make tomato powder...

[@janiedee7388]

Oh Bless your heart! If it were me,the mill, tomatoes and anything else having to do with this would have been flung out in the yard! My husband would be right behind because he would have been laughing! Then I would be laughing harder then he wasGod Bless to You and Yours

[@bettyadkisson1681]

Thank you the recipe. Now I can try making this coming year. I didn't know it was that easy. God bless you all.

[@BeccaTheBoring]

I love your videos! And not only because you never measure anything. (My mom taught me to cook that way, too. Her tortilla recipe included "about three fingers of buisquick...")

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

lol....I had to LEARN to measure for this channel!

[@jaggers116]

BTW I love the 4 leaf clovers at the beginning n end 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I just bought a lotto ticket today...If I ever win big..there is gonna be a Volfie shin dig and you all are invited!

[@barbarannie]

I made this and it is FANTASTIC ! Thank you!

[@1946pepper]

wow look at that Corning Coffee pot with the blue corn flowers on the front wow I haven't seen one in years, make some great coffee in that

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I don't eat Ketchup as much as I used to..but there are some thing you HAVE to have ketchup for..and eggs are one and meatloaf is another!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thank you!

[@dravenromero1386]

Curry could be an amazing addition aswell (for if you want to eat it with fries/bratwurst-style meats) Super informative videos, I've never seen a homemade ketchup recipe before, this is so awesome! Thank you for all of these videos, I'm addicted to your channel lol!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Hope this helps! Have a great evening!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

LOVE Homemade Ketchup!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thanks so much!

[@fadeddenims501]

Due to drought, the tomatoes were not good this year, they were rather small and sparse. I am hoping next year will be better and if it is, I will be using your recipe for canning ketchup. I am focusing on buying either NON GMO or Organic foods and that can get to be expensive, so anywhere I can save a bit and still have wholesome foods, that's what I will be doing! I enjoy your videos. If I lived closer I would be willing to help you out, especially with canning so I could learn first hand. You make a great teacher!

[@realworldprepper]

Sounds pretty good. If I may, if folks are like me and don't like the taste of clove, I would recommend either cumin or ginger, or both, along with nutmeg instead of allspice.

[@elsielukiv2410]

Just fell into your channel and your catsup looks great I’ll try this next year I’m having trouble with it not thickening very good but the taste is sure there anything is better homemade cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@Julieaism]

I have my own recipe but have never used the vinegar. So will try yours because it sounds sooo dern good! I LUV dipping my fries in them...and yes...eggs too LOL

[@ediemurray1692]

Gonna try this one

[@NanaTexSB]

I just love your videos, now I'm inspired to make ketchup/catsup.

[@skybirdbird]

looks great!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Very Yummy Stuff!

[@janinecobb]

Oh that would be a lot of fun!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

one of these days...lol

[@BornRandy62]

I spent all afternoon skinning and cubing up my butternut squash to pressure can tommorow. Picked a bounty of peppers of all kinds to make a peck of pickled peppers out of. I am trying a variation of swwet bread and butter pickle recipe. The peppers will be a mixture of habanero hot down to yellow banana and green bell mild.

[@nadinepollak4642]

I've always wanted to make ketsup???lol but was a little scared. Watching the video, makes it look like I can tackle this one. Thank you for posting this video and all the others. Sometimes I stay up until wee hours in the morning watching one video after another. Never stop making them. Ooops gotta go,just saw you have and pork & beans I must watch.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Very |True!

[@Gardeninggirl1107]

delicious! I'm kind of a ketchup freak and homemade is just what I'm looking for. Do the tomatoes need to be seeded? And can the recipe be halved - I don't have 8-10 lbs of tomatoes right now. Thank you :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

And Finally from answerbag(dot)com What is the difference between catsup and ketchup? Thank you for your question. Ketchup and catsup are different terms for the same thing which is tomato sauce made from tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt, allspice, cloves, and cinnamon. Tomato sauce is a similar product made without vinegar. It often contains celery and onions. There is no difference in the product. From Me? I have always called it ketchup..my dad born in 1926 always called it Catsup.

[@bcdoula]

I am totally going to make some! Is it necessary to cook it in a double boiler???

[@clairetwine123]

Enjoyed that. Think I'm going to try my own too :) x

[@marionchurch6610]

a very happy thanksgiving the

[@janinecobb]

Oh you made me laugh Bev, now I know what I am in for this Summer 😉

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

this is testament of how far my video have come!

[@janinecobb]

Oh the laugh post was meant for the food mill, the videos continued to play. Your videos keep on getting better and better :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

one of these days I am going to compile a blooper video!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

That is exactly what my family says!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

it is yummy!

[@clmierau]

I can't wait for our tomatoes to ripen so I can do this...but I have 2 questions: do you have to use roma tomatoes? or can you use any kind and why did you freeze the tomatoes before blanching them?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

That's the spirit! You sound a lot like my older son!

[@michelle10261]

yum you are so clever lady

[@whatsarobut]

Man, I wish I could come over for dinner! Hah. Everything you make looks so good- even *ketchup*. X3 Love it!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

From Mentalfloss(dot)com What’s the Difference Between Ketchup and Catsup? Ketchup and catsup are simply two different spellings for the same thing, a modern, Westernized version of a condiment that European traders were introduced to while visiting the Far East in the late 17th century.

[@sandranodine1151]

I will be making your recipe for the ketchup. how did your cabbage turn out? I love cabbage😆

[@TheRealXesc]

Awesome video! Thanks! :)) We wanted to make ketchup this year, but our harvest has failed us, so we've got to buy a few cases instead. We're making ketchup this year, that's for sure! :))

[@cottonwoodcharmco9303]

I just love your videos. You are very informative and I like the production. Maybe it because you remind me of my grandma, but anyways I was wondering if I could make up a batch of my sloppy joe mix and can it the same way.

[@readingwithbeverleyvolfie9506]

If I could?

[@cottonwoodcharmco9303]

Beverley Volfie I have a homemade sloppy joe sauce that I make and I was wondering if you could can about the same as ketchup since the base of the sauce is ketchup. I am new to canning so I have just been watching different youtube videos and I have found that yours and linda's pantry are the best videos.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Melani Lyman as long as there is no meat in it..and it has enough sugar/vinegar to have agood acid content..couldyou tell me the ingredients? and boilbath can it!

[@cottonwoodcharmco9303]

OurHalfAcreHomestead one batch has 1 1\4 ketchup, 1 tsp lemon juice,1\4 c water,2 T brown sugar, 1 c celery shredded, 1\2 tsp salt, 2 tsp vinegar, 1\4 c chopped onion, 1 1\2 tsp dry mustard. This is just the ingredients for one meal. I would probably have to tweak it for bigger batch.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Melani Lyman oh heck yes...can that up!! sounds lovely!

[@sharonnelson7349]

I bought a new canner like yours with the weight that spins instead of rocking. I hate it. Can I use the old fashioned weight on this canner? I get burned every time I put it on and it has gotten very rusty on the valve. Any ideas ? Ketchup is my next project BTW!! :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

you'll never look back!

[@Jaclynncolorado]

Yeah another way to use my tomatoes. Thanks I'm up to my ears in tomatoes

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Woot!

[@MichellesCraftsandMore]

I have never tried to make ketchup. I have made bbq sauce though. We don't eat a lot of ketchup here either, so I guess it wouldn't matter if I made any or not. I might try one of these days.

[@lindawalters4888]

G'day Bev Linda here what do you use to grind your spices and I love the idea of freezing tomatoes many blessing from down under !🇦🇺👍

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I use a coffee grinder..I know have a kitchen-aide one because you can remove the carafe and put it in the dishwasher!

[@lindawalters4888]

+OurHalfAcreHomestead thanks darl I have one must get it out to use !🇦🇺

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

according to wiki(dot)answers(dot)com What is the difference between Ketchup and Catsup? Answer: Only the spelling Basically, there is no difference. Catsup and ketchup are alternative spellings of the same word for a tomato-based condiment.

[@freakygeaktwo]

no idea where one is and I'm fairly sure it's probably in another town way too far to walk lol I don't mind walking around it's lugging stuff back that I'll pay for the next week or so. and with money being extra tight due to unknown spending I'll have to put several things on hold. :( but I'll get where I want to be eventually :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

It could be worse..you could have NONE! lol

[@kellibrian1339]

I would love if you calculated the cost of your final product and included what you paid for the bulk produce.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Sorry but the video is almost 2 years old...

[@AuntDuddie]

Love blender ketchup!

[@SilverStarGazer]

I saw a vid by yankeeprepper on what he calls catsup and claims there is a difference... From what I can tell it has cinnamon and is thinner. Supposedly more like sloppy Joe sauce. Would you consider this more like true ketchup or sloppy Joe sauce?

[@freakygeaktwo]

listen to the Home Steady Honey Hour on prepperbroadcasting dot come they always have one or two canning questions each Thursday.

[@freakygeaktwo]

I was waiting for GoatHallow to do something like this because he mentioned he was learning how to make his own and stop buying. I'll be doing this next year if I can get any tomatoes to grow that is. don't hate when your tools try to run away on ya ? and is that a re-purposed syrup bottle ? looks good.

[@JanColdwater]

Hey Mrs. V, are there certain foods like liquids or sauces etc, that u don't need to debubble?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Debubble if you feel it is necessary!~ Always listen to your guts!

[@Pastlifepioneerwomancentury]

Momma B, could you put this through a Cheese cloth so it can be smoother? I would love to try and make homemade ketchup, just afraid Cody my 14 year old won't like it if it's not smooth.. sending you hugs Love love!!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

you sure could..but if you cook it longer then puree it is should be smoother..then put it through if you want!

[@Pastlifepioneerwomancentury]

Ok cool I'm growing four different varieties of paste tomatoes this year so I'm excited about this recipe. We go through a lot of ketchup. Thanks Mumma B

[@choward1115]

Oh Bev, I love this video!!! I'm off to our local farmers market or health food store (tomorrow) to pick up some roma tomatoes and brown sugar. I've been waiting for a video for ketcup. wooo hooo!!! Thanks for sharing!! Take care, Candy :-)

[@andrewzimmernisgross]

My mind is blown because your stove has outlets 😂#imonly25

[@whatsarobut]

Hah, that would be amazing! :D Best of luck!

[@JustinN86]

I'm totally new to the whole canning thing and I was wondering why canning tomatoes by themselves takes longer to process than when you process them in things like ketchup.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I have never made salsa..

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

did you see my flower shampoo video? I gave you a shout out! lol

[@chrissysmith5436]

can you freeze the sauces you make?

[@Kimmies991]

Yum!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

no difference..not that I am aware of?

[@321Spiral123]

Do you always use Roma tomatoes? Did you grow the tomatoes yourself?

[@contreeman]

DON'T USE KETCHUP THAT MUCH BUT THAT LOOKED GOOD. AS LONG AS IT NOT HEINZ. I GOOD TO GO.

[@TheRealXesc]

Yeah, you could have none, like us, this year :( We wanted to make all kinds of tomato things this year, so we planted 30+ tomato plants, but this year, the weather here in Northern Sweden ruined everything... We had intense heat way too early, then we had freezing nights, then very hot, and then, rain, rain, rain, rain... and now, when it's supposed to be really hot, we have had freezing nights again... All our plants are/have bloomed, but not a sign of a tomato :(

[@janiedee7388]

Meant to post this under the food mill but the video moved on as I was posting it.

[@janinecobb]

Oh we got through about a litre a week!

[@averyhomestead9554]

why did you have the pot inside another pot with water?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

so it can cook slow without scorching the bottom!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

OOOPS?

[@SilverStarGazer]

Love this simple recipe! I was wondering what the diff is between ketchup and catsup? I've heard it's more than just spelling but wasn't sure. To the salsa comment below: there's plenty of ways to make salsa without needing spice packets!

[@cherylstraub5970]

Why do you use frozen tomatoes?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

it is the easiet way to keep them until I am ready to use them.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

lol

[@kathyjotourtois]

im the ketchup freak in the house lol . never had home made b 4 . maybe ill give it a shot . if i dont like it i can always use it in other recipes . it looks like its very time consuming . ............... hugs n xxx

[@JanColdwater]

R those tomatoes Frozen, frozen, or lightly frozen?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Frozen!

[@mesatop5]

Oops! Looks like I said it twice. Well, I'm sure it's double-nummy. If I'm in a canning-friendly situation come next tomato time, I'm gonna whip me up some.

[@vond7495]

Where is the recipe ?

[@mesatop5]

Nummy!!

[@Yorkieapsa]

I'm kinda sad you didn't use the foodmill ;)
